Anyone know where I can get shock bushings for the stock shocks on our 09 MXR LT ?

i believe they are rebuilable so Apex should have them in stock.

$3.98 at Advanced Auto. Old F150 tailgate strike bushings,took 'em apart and made my own. Worked like a charm!! As far as a stock Apex shock being rebuildable, that's a cruel joke.

I'm sorry I wasn't trying to make a joke so please don't think that. But thanks for the info on what to use.

TG: No problem man.
I attached a couple of pix of the repair. I just pressed the old bushing out of the shock eye, pressed out the inner sleeve, reamed the outer sleeve of the left over bushing material, then inserted the F150 bushing in it, then pressed the inner sleeve in to expand it out and then pressed the whole thing back in the shock eye and Voila, fixed shock bushing.
