Hello gentlemen. I have the e150 Econoline van SWB listed above. I need to replace the body mount bushings but as usual they are hard to find. i want to go with the polyurethane if I can. Do you have any ideas of where i might be able to find them? Also, could you tell me how many total bushing locations there are including the core support?
thank you,
Mark

Hey Mark,

I know energy suspensions make polyurethane suspension busing kits for the F150's of the same year are your van. They are top quality product. I think a good step would be for you to call Energy Suspension and talk to their customer support, to see if they have the bushing kit for the E series. I suspect there are shared bushings on both F series Trucks and E series Vans.
I have attached a link for your reference.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
