I'm kinda new to posting on this site so bear with me.The info i have read has been really helpful especially when it comes to locating parts.The problem i am having now is trying to locate rear swaybar bushings, i have checked past posts on this subject, but the part numbers all come up dead end.Rock auto shows the part,which is a D shaped split bushing,but the shaft hole is only 1 1/8 ,instead of the needed 1 1/2 hole.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Last year I had to replace those bushings on my Adventurer. The Ford dealer, where I was at the time, did not have them in stock so sent me to the local AutoZone down the street who did have them. I was surprised. Check your local parts places.

Original ungreaseable ones in my 94 Southwind lasted 14 years. I just replaced them last year with new, ungreaseable urethane. It will last longer than I will own this coach. Yours should also. I got mine at Rowells Inc. Here is a link to their website. RowellsWhat you get is a bushing kit produced by Roadmaster.
