Our Tandem-Axle Hanger Kit, # APT8, comes with the bushings already pressed into the equalizers, but it does not include the bushings for the leaf springs.

If you need bushings for your leaf springs, you will want to pickup up 8 of part # TRBU11566 for standard nylon bushings or we offer Lippert's Never Fail Bushing Set, # LC279684. This set includes 8 bushings, so you will only need to purchase a quantity of 1.

The Never Fail bushings cost more, but they will perform much better over time and they come with a lifetime warranty.
