AZJeff Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 The bushings on both ends of my leaf springs are looking pretty sad, and I was getting ready to order some new ones from Rock Auto, but the Moog part number they list and the dimensions listed for that part number are GROSSLY bigger than what's in the springs right now. So for starters: 1. do the XJ's and the MJ's share common spring bushing sizes? 2. does anyone have the CORRECT Moog part numbers to use (or some alternative, quality brand?)

eaglescout526 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Yes. The XJ and MJ share the same bushings. Don't know why AMC has two different numbers unless they had it like that for truck suspension reasons. Don't know the MOOG numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75sv1 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Clevite if you can find them. Also, might check Stengle Brothers. https://www.stengelbros.net/INDEX.HTML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghetdjc320 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I used 91 XJ bushings and they were an exact fit for spring eyes and shackle mount. I ran the poly bushings but would have preferred rubber if I could find them locally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88 Comanche Solacer Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 To my eyes the bushings aren’t the same. I ordered XJ leafs as I was told by Morris 4x4 they were but alas the leaf springs in the XJ are shorter and one of the bushings is smaller. I’ve attached a photo of the predicament I found myself in. I ended up finding the right leaf spring and bushings at JW in NorCal. The old one’s off the MJ are in the “little spoon” position despite their being the bigger party to the cuddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
