My trailing arm bushings in the hub assembly are quite worn and make an audible clunk over bumpy surfaces at low speed. You can grab the trailing arm and twist it and hear the clunk as it’s travel maxes out in either direction.

I don’t see them listed on rock auto and some ford parts sites show them as discontinued. Are there any replacements out there or do I try my luck swapping over a whole used hub assembly? I work at a dealership so I have access to any tools or presses that may be required to replace the bushings.

The offending bushings are circled in the photo below.

Awesome thanks. Found them for about $25 and the upper sway bar bushings which seem extremely expensive at $56.

$115 shipped to my door will stop my rear end clunks. Thank you!
