Default Look for the oldest heavy truck spring place you can find

Hi Ian

To echo Grant look for the longest standing truck spring shop in your area. How I have done it in the past, successful each time, was make up a simple drawing of the bushings and pins with lenght, I'D and OD. Then take it by their parts department or talk to them, or talk to them on the phone and email them the drawing. This process has worked for me every time.

Only problem on my HUP was getting new pins with correct locking notch but that was easy to cut the cross notch in.

Cheers Phil
