robfg67 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 According to the MJ Parts Catalogue, there are two different types of bushings: Part # 5200 1161 w/o ECE Part # 5200 2539 w/ ECE What is ECE and which bushing is correct for my stock ’89 MJ?

jpnjim Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I know there's a type of factory hushing that has windows cut out of the rubber (for a less harsh ride, I guess). Whichever ones those are, get the other kind. :smart: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robfg67 Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 Does anyone know what ECE stands for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpdocdave Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 well i just did some searching, everytime it comes up it is saying w/ disconect axle. still it is very vague, but my guess would be w/ ece is w/ disconect axle. obviously no one has ever heard it called that before.

Willy The bushings in our (96') ZJ have the windows, same exact bushings (& arms for that matter) as XJ/MJ's, but with windows cut out of them. I don't know when they started using them, 1996 was a (ZJ) change year, so it could've been then. :hmm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
