Control arm bushing problem.

Ok first off i have a 94 zj V8 with a np242. It has a Rock Krawler triangulated 4 link set up in the rear. Now before you tell me rock krawler sucks i know already. It was on the jeep when i got it. The problem im having is that the rear upper control arm bushings on the frame side are toast and makes so much noise. I was wondering if anyone here could tell me where i can get bushings for these arms. I tried rock krawler and they said they dont make them anymore. If i can't get these things im screwed because it has the welded in truss on the rear, so if i can't find them im gonna have to replace the rear end then get some adj arms

if they are poly bushings...or you can get a measurement of the bushing housing...ID OD...etc....you can contact energy suspension and they can hook you up....or they may have some cut already....energysuspensionparts.com

how about you call ROCK KRAWLER. at least they're still in business.

for the record, bushings in upper triangulated arms wear out VERY quickly. it's not a proper use of a bushing.
