Front leaf spring bushings?

Does anyone happen to know what bushings were used and or a part number for the front leaf springs that sportsmobile used in the 4x4 vans with the old man emu spring packages they were using around 2005 for the conversions? I have a call out to the sportsmobile but just thought I would ask here as well.
Im having the front and rear leaf springs gone through, re-arching and in general just a good healthy freshening up. The rear bushings look great, however I wouldn't mind putting new ones in. The fronts are yet to be determined, but I would like to know what to use if they are bad.
Thank you.
Tracey

Re: Front leaf spring bushings?

Yes - My front bushings are shot and this is on my TO-DO list shortly along with the Fox Shox treatment. I would assume that a standard size leaf spring bushing would have been used and you'd would be able to choose rubber or polyurethane. If you do find anything out I'd be interested. SMB West can provide new Betts "upgraded" leaf packs if you wish to go that route. Peter quoted me $1875 + T&S. He did not answer my bushing question when I asked last December.
