1995 Ranger XLT 4X4 4.0 V6 5 speed manual
Removed rear blocks and replaced springs and shocks.
Removed front coil springs and replaced springs and shocks.
Removed radius arm lowering brackets.
Installed stock axle beam brackets.
It rides terrible, bounces lick crazy, every little bump feels like a giant pothole.
There are front rubber bushings attached to the frame that are pressed hard against the spot where the axles and radius arms meet (just behind the coil and shock). They are at least 4" long. I "believe" they are supposed to protect the axles against the frame hitting them (but don't really know) there is no space between them and the axles. In fact they are being crushed against the front axles.
Does anyone know what they are called and what length they are supposed to be, and if they are easy to replace ???
Thank you for any and all help !
