I have had this old truck for many years and it's about time I change out the worn or nonexistent bushings. I have seen the OEM with the hardware and I've also seen the poly, afternmarkets. I just need something with hardware and the polys don't come with it.

If I buy the polys I will have to source a hardware kit and press for the bushings -all pieces will =$$. Should I just pay less and get the OEM because it comes with replacement hardware? I have a bazillion dollars into this old truck 183k but it runs perfect and passes smog like a new car.

Truck grew up in the salt belt.

I've heard from many people that the OEM rubber ones are the best unless you're off road all the time and/or like a really harsh ride...

RN can supply the hardware if you want to go with the polybush kits.
Please advise on the veh. age and if you have retained the anti-roll bars, I'll put a list together for you.

Thanks Les!

A 92 w/ the 92 goodies and sway bars intact. I currently employ an OMEmu med duty lift with lumber wagon-Rancho 5000 shocks. Should have spent the extra $$ and gotten the 9000's.
