So what size will the front ones be in this kit if it is not the smaller size it will be wrong ones...If it has the 1.500 for front it will be wrong I need the same in front as is in back

 

[thatK30guy]

Sometimes Summit doesn't have certain part numbers in stock. They do back orders. I'm not sure why these guys are giving you the runaround but thats bullshiit. I'd PM Artzner and let him know about this. He can probably get this straightened out for you.

I'm still in utter disbelief and disgust that those guys can't help you with a very, very common part number from Energy Suspension. I've probably bought maybe 20-30 of those kits over the years thru Summit. I'm getting ready to order another one soon.

I said the very forward eyes will be 1.5" but you can run out under your rig and measure to confirm it. If you have aftermarket springs, it will be either 1.5" or 1.125".

This is why I wanted a picture of the front eye bushings from your rig. I can tell by looking at it.

 

[stephan.laun]

well mine are the 1.125 ones so this is the wrong kit I just ordered?

 

[thatK30guy]

Let me make this simpler:

ENS-3-2112 will be in a kit like this...

4 bushings, 1.5" o.d. to fit the very forward front spring eyes.

8 bushings, 1.125" o.d. to fit the rearward spring eyes and frame shackle eyes.

6 sleeves, 2 to fit 9/16" bolts and 4 to fit 7/16" bolts.

Is this measurement on the very front spring, under the bumper? If so, you have Superlift or Skyjacker springs.

 

[stephan.laun]

Ok so ya the front spring eye bushings will be to big for what I need and will not work

 

[stephan.laun]

Yes the front eye on my spring is the same size as the back eye of my front spring

 

[thatK30guy]

Correct. I said it before twice in this thread, "post pictures" and we could have avoided this problem.

At least if you still get this kit, you will have the correct bushings for the rear eyes and shackle.

Energy Suspension does NOT offer a bushing to fit Superlift or Skyjacker. You'd have to get the correct ones from Daystar. I think ORD gets theirs from Daystar.

I'd still like to see a picture, again.

Ok, did you buy these springs new or did they come installed on the truck? Are there any numbers you can visually see on the springs? They can be painted stencils or stickers.

 

[stephan.laun]

Was on truck I will go get pics and look closer for numbers but I didnt see any last time brb

I had a very similar problem and tracked down that my lift was a Skyjacker lift and the bushings aren't sold by Summit. Call Rocky Mountain Suspension Products 1-800-521-4908

If you get a female voice - she IS the person you'll want to talk to.

Daystar has the replacement bushings for Superlift and Skyjacker springs. Here's the link:

Wes, how do you explain the Energy Suspension bushings that i bought and installed in my Superlift springs? Energy Suspension list them right in their book. There is one number for everything but Superlift then there's another number for Superlift springs.

 

[thatK30guy]

Whats the number? Let me know so I can verify on the website and my catalog here at home.

 

[NV_K5]

That's funny - I called Daystar (like a year ago) gave them the specs and numbers from old bushings etc. and was told they couldn't help me, and they didn't know whos part numbers I was looking for. I called Skyjacker and the guy I talked to knew right away what I was looking for and gave me the part number and Rocky Mountains' phone number. I wonder when Daystar started making those...

 

[thatK30guy]

Scott, ES website doesn't show anything nor does my catalog for the bushings you described.

Here's a link to ES site: http://energysuspension.com/pages/c4wd1.html

Scroll down til you get to the Blazers up to '95 section...

 

[stephan.laun]

Here are some various pics of my springs and one of one of the old bushings I took out.

 

[stephan.laun]

 

[thatK30guy]

Yep, look like Superlifts to me. Skyjackers have a bolt and sleeve on the spring wraps. I've seen both types on Superlift springs.

Ok, 3-2112 from ES is not the correct kit. I'm sure you can cancel your order, even online, too, and let me check if Summit sells the Daystar bushings....
