I am at wits end trying to find bushings for my truck, I have a 2004 1500 4x4 5.7 hemi. I have tried all part stores Napa, Uap, partsource, national 4x4 even the dealership.they tell me they are backorderd from 2000. Can anyone tell me where I can find these bushings in Canada. Thanks

 

I have a 2006 and i also have run into this same problem. I have to replace these in order to install my leveling kit considering the lower strut bolt are seized to the bushings. I was able to get them from my local dodge dealer they had to order them but they are able to get them. They are quite pricey. 39.00 for a bushing and if you have to replace the bolt itself like i do there running 25.00 a piece. I tried autozone and they cant get ahold of them but i did have some luck at oriellys and they are about 20.00 cheaper. I know this isnt much help but try oriellys,

Someone also said the other day they seen them on ebay.

 

Update
I spent hours on the phone with dodge and the told me they are not supplying these bushings anymore. They are making us buy the whole lower control arm with bushings and ball joint.

 

They are anywhere from $12-22 on www.rockauto.com

 

Hi, do anybody know if bushing on lower control arm are the same on those bolts that connect arm to chassis and the one that connects strut to lower control arm.

Bolt is seized with bushing :/ and I can't get it out...

I ordered quick-struts from rancho and I have to remove bolt in order to remove strut (obviously )... :/

On rockauto, there are lower bushing front and rear, but no bushings for strut connecting to control arm :/

Any suggestions?

EDIT: Oh I have 2006 1500 4x4 5.7 HEMI

 

I am also having problems getting the lower bolt off of strut at control arm. This is a design flaw for sure. At some point you have to replace struts.....I have a bad right strut. Thing is squeaking and driving me crazy! Do i have to get new lower control arm?

 

I have a 2006 dodge ram 4x4 5.7L hemi, and did this problem fixer last year. went to the dodge dealership and they ordered the part for me you need the bushing and the metal sleeve it comes in i have the part number but gotta find the paper i wrote it on, its a tough one especially cutting out the old bushings and make sure when you have the new bushing pushed in by the mechanic that you mark exactly where they need to be or you will be going back. if your doing this to fix the wobble at 55-65 mph then it will work but a very good allignment shop will need to do the allignment once your done. GOOD LUCK. ill see if i can find that part# if you google there was a TSB that came out from dodge and they have the part numbers on there that you need.

 

Ok, time to tell you how did I remove strut bolt on lower control arm... well I tried to press it out with custom created tool but there was no go to get it out all the way. I ended cutting strut flanges, bolt and "cut" out rubber bushing with torch gun and then cut out metal sleeve with hand metal saw... I then ordered custom made bushing and put it in fridge (to reduce diameter of bishings metal sleeve). Then next day just put it in with rubber hammer. But I had to be fast, because when you take it from fridge it warms up very quickly...

If anyone needs plan of bushing with tolerances, please PM me. I made it by my self. It is in metric measurements, but I can convert it to imperial if you want

Oh original bolt was all rusty. I put in new metal bolt of grade 10.9.

I hope you understand any of this. Hard to express myself sometimes in english
