not having much luck, looking for upper axle bushings for a D30 with a 1/2 bolt? any links?

rock krawler makes a joint that runs a 9/16" bolt

currie makes a joint that runs a 7/16" bolt.

not sure of any bushings with an upgraded bolt size

and these press into the upper diff location? im gonna check them out, thanks ktm.

edit; not what im looking for, i am building a radius arm front, so i need the extra "give" of factory type bushings...just dont like the 10mm bolt.

you can run radius arms with those. you just need to run rubber bushings on the axle and where the upper control arm meets the lower.

I broke both upper control arms completely in half by hitting a large hole in the woods going lik 35mph.

The bolts were fine. I re-used them to bolt on uppers I got from junk yard.

Currie makes a 1/2" version too.

Why not make your own. Take a 2" od bushing assy (that you can get anywhere), have it turned down to the od of the OEM bushing, press it in, and put a few little welds to secure it. You'll get a 9/16" bolt too.

unless I'm misunderstanding you moog makes replacement bushings for OEM applications

cool story. the bolts are still weak, the factory control arms were just weaker

That takes 1/2" or larger bolts?

That is friggin awesome.

No lie!!

Those things are pretty wimpy, eh?

When I redid my Dana 30, I "drilled" outa set of factory bushings to 1/2" the sleeve is ~1/2" with little nubs pressed inward that gives you the ~10mm ID. For drilling I used a TiAlN coated 1/2" end mill in a Bridgeport. Those little nubs are F-in' hard!!!!

Those sleeves are probly tool steel! Or harder...

possibility but im a cheeap ***, and already have the JJ's for the uppers..suprised im not geting flamed for not three linking it..lol
