    Rubber Underneath (suspension parts)

    I tried to find something on replacing the rubber underneath the van, but I couldn't find anything. If you want to keep things clean I can delete this and follow up with the thread that's available. If nothing is started already, I'd like to see what's out there to do the replacement. I kinda want to do just about all of the replacing if needed all together.

    A couple of pics are here,

    I believe this is part of a front sway bar on a 87 4x4, all pics are to my 4x4, but I'm betting that this is valid for many other vans here,


    MOD EDIT — These are called front stabilizer cushions. They are part of the stabilizer bar system.

    MOD EDIT — The rubber bumper for the lower A-Arm is: BUMPER, FRONT SPRING, NO.2. The accordion rubber boot is: BOOT, STEERING RACK, NO.2. In the picture below, the drive axle and boot are removed (not visible).

    That's it for now. I'm sure I'll have other pics and questions regarding this .

    bushings, bushings, bushings ...........

    Slippery slope working on this van. Anyone have links or part numbers to replacements? Short of that I'll likely just take all of them down to FLAPS and try and find something that works.

    Not sure 100% about 4wd, but all of those parts seem to be on rockauto. Don't see any reason for the part numbers to be different from 4wd to 2wd but it's always good to run the part numbers and cross reference them somehow. Just be careful with rockauto and don't spring for the cheapest parts. I usually find parts on rockauto and then search for the same part # on amazon because with prime shipping it's cheaper and faster. Good luck.

    Duplication. The small bits in the bottom of the first picture assemble into the same part. The oil level sensor has an o-ring type seal. The part number is posted on the site in a few threads you'll have to search for that one.
