Discontinued parts

I have a 2001 Fleetwood expedition on a freightliner chassis with a Cummings/Allison transmission. The front end is leaf springs that have a "bumper" between the frame and the middle of the leaf spring. According to freightliner the part has been discontinued. Has anyone found a supplier of a substitute or a old inventory part to replace this?

You're describing a "bump stop." There should be any number of sources for them. Here's a start: https://www.google.com/search?q=rubb...client=gws-wiz

I did that search and it does have some that look the same. I wonder why the freightliner guy didn't call it that or suggest that option. I will take the whole one off and see what I can find. Thanks for the help.

You don't need an OEM bump stop. Just match the height and diameter of the original and the way it mounts.
