How to replace front leaf spring bushings, 87 Suzuki Samurai. poly bushings

Thanks for the great video! I am going to do the same job on my 1977 HJ45 Land Cruiser tomorrow

Yeah I think it's the way to go if you have problems destroying rubber bushings. And the suspension seems to ride the same and flex the same. At first it will seem stiffer but it will loosen up. Atleast that's how it went for me.

@@davidcraft4909 Thanks, I appreciate the reply... will test it out once I've done the tie rod ends and wheel bearings too

Nice rig

So a set comes with enough to do half the job? One needs to purchase two kits? Thanks man.

[@davidcraft4909]

One box or kit comes with enough bushings to do either the front or the back. They are the same, but to do the whole vehicle that would be two boxes.

@davidcraft4909 thank you Sir, I have done the rears and have removed the fronts... I'm in way over my head 😅 I also need to move my shock mounting location up front as they are rubbing the U Bolt Plate... but some bozo ground off the mounting stud on the actual plate. So now have to sort out some kind of solution. I'm not even sure if I can order based on a Samurai axel as I'm not sure if they are Toyota axels or Sami axels ... I'm thinking Toyota as they appear to be inverted.

@@ChromeArtyI had a problem with my shocks rubbing the u bolt plates. I bought my samurai already lifted so I don't know how it came stock. but mine has some lower mounting points for the shocks on the axle. I think those might be for a sway bar and the u bolt plate have a stud on them for the shocks. Or I might have it backwards, also I don't even know if the lower mounting points I'm talking about are factory, they look factory. I have a video on my shocks I chose some summit shocks that have the most narrow main tube, to try to keep them from rubbing the u bolt plates.
