What is the main benefit of replacing old leaf spring bushings?

Replacing old leaf spring bushings helps to stabilize the movement of your vehicle's rear axle. This leads to a more predictable ride, reduces wandering on the highway, and can improve stability during braking, especially when the vehicle is loaded or towing.

Are these bushings a direct replacement for the original ones?

Yes, these bushings are intended as a direct replacement for the original leaf spring bushings on the specified Jeep CJ models. They are designed to fit into the existing suspension mounting points.

Can I install these myself?

Installation typically involves removing the old bushings and pressing in the new ones, which can require specialized tools like a press or a heavy-duty puller. It's recommended to consult a service manual or a professional mechanic if you are unsure about the installation process.

Product Details

If you're working on the suspension for your 1959-1983 Jeep CJ5, don't forget about the leaf spring bushings. These often overlooked parts play a big role in how your Jeep handles, especially when carrying a load or towing. Worn-out bushings can let the rear axle move around more than it should, causing the vehicle to wander on the highway or even steer itself a bit under braking, which is often called passive steer. The original rubber bushings are fine for standard driving, but if you're looking for more stability, especially with a load, upgrading is a smart move.

This kit from SuperPro gives you new bushings designed to keep your rear axle planted. By stabilizing the movement of the leaf springs, these bushings help your Jeep track straighter on the road and feel more secure when you're braking hard. The manufacturer suggests pairing these with greaseable shackles for even better performance and longevity, making the rear end of your 4WD much more predictable, no matter what you're doing.
