Folks, I'm in the process of upgrading the suspension on my '95 by adding
a rear anti-sway bar and changing all the rubber bushings to polyurethane.
I contacted Suspension Restoration (http://www.suspension.com) because they
claimed to have the entire Energy Suspension catalog in stock. (Energy
Suspension manufactures greaseable bushings.)
Anyway, the response I got isn't formatted correctly, and has one outright
error (1 1/8" is closest to 1 3/32", not 1 1/4" as claimed). But it seems
that few people are interested in Dakota bushings. Maybe others on this
list can bug the folks at Suspension Restoration to stock Dakota pieces.
Ron

Energy Suspension does not make a 1-3/32" sway bar bushings. The
closest is a 1-1/4". In stock in black.

Mr. Rader:We get a lot of inquiries over the internet, but very little
for the Dakota trucks. So we do not stock all the bushings for them,
and I can't answer your questions about '95 application because no one
has ever inquired.
But, I will find out for you.
E.S. is beginning to produce some new bushings for the Ram trucks. We
are quietly ordering them to have in stock, for an announcement about
several new bushings this month. Unfortunately, we have not seen any
thing new for the Dakota.
Sincerely,
Bruce Stambaugh
Suspension Restoration Parts Co.
