Spring Bushings

I recently pulled a set of springs off a '63 K20. The bushings are shot. What size should they be? The inside of the spring with the bushing removed is about 1.15".

Re: Spring Bushings

I need the bushings for just the springs. The shackles are fine. The bushings were worn though and the spring is egg shaped so it is hard to get a good measurement.

I probably do need new leaves. Mine are half thickness at the top of the eye.
