Default Leaf spring bushings

2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab 4.7L

I have been searching for some new leaf spring bushings. With me being lowered may have contributed to them wearing out prematurely. They aren't completely wore out but its getting bad. I had my rear end loose from the springs a few weeks back to weld up my spring perches and the springs would sway side to side a good bit. Normally with anything thing else they are pretty stiff. So i knew i had start looking for some new bushings.

After searching for months on end i have come up empty. I have found them for the 02-05 Ram 1500 and the 06 and up 1500 Mega Cab but not my 2006 Ram 1500 Quad Cab. I called Energy Suspension and they said they do not have a kit for my truck but i could measure the bushings and order what i need from their universal bushings. I told them that would be my very last resort because i'm always on the road for work except on ever other weekend.

Is there any other option for me?

They didn't mess with the rear suspension, I don't see why a set for 02-05 wouldn't work?

That's what I was thinking too. I just hadn't found anyone or anything to confirm that it was the same.
