FJ 60 bushings
Thanks

Warning,
Only purchase if you want good service and a competent dealer.
If you want headaches and someone who sucks, shop elsewhere....
Agreed - Kurt
no one asked if they were stock bushings.
If the springs are stock they are 70 mm wide.
Aftermarket range from 2.5" to 70 mm ( 2.755" ) and if are narrow require a special bushing
Stock shackle pins are 18 mm. Some aftermarket are 5/8" or 3/4' pins Make sure you have that info.
Many complaints with vendors are a result of customers not ordering the correct part.

Stock springs stock bushings.

no one will complain about Kurt, ... unless you don't want good friendly old school service and don't wanna talk to anybody/let me buy it online with no certainty of what I am really getting... you get the point.
then again, with that said they ante tre's you want cheap crap you can go elsewhere... not recommended.

I got mine from ebay, rubber bushes all round, fitted them myself when I put in the OME springs.
Energy Suspension Poly bushings:
Energy Suspension Parts: 60 Series, Toyota Landcruiser Series 60 1987
I ordered a set, and they fit perfect. Fast shipping, too.

This is what I run also...they hold up better than my OME bushings did.
I thought rubber would give a softer ride and more give when twisting / flexing.
Unless there is a good synthetic option that has enough give for twisting, but lasts long enough, and doesnt crack up.
Yea ok, makes sense I guess. I'll just keep an eye on them, I have it on the hoist regularly enough anyways. Just put all new rubber bushes in, not about the swap them out at the moment.
Here is a dumb question, and I didn't find it on the website.
How many of these kits do you need per truck? One kit per spring, or one kit per axle?

you will need 24 individual bushings, 6 per leaf spring. depending on how old and worn the spring pins and shackles are, you may want to consider changing them also
