    Any recommendations where to get 1.250 4 bar bushings? I have checked all the suspension manufacturers that I can think of seems most common size is 1.125.
     
  2. Amazon shows these. I Googled 1.250 4 bar bushings. Screenshot_20230606-161102_Samsung Internet.jpg

    Find a buddy with a lathe and make your own out of acetal rod or delrod. It will be easier in the long run.

    Use the Energy Suspension part number and check Summit Racing. They probably have them in stock.

    Delrin is a bearing material. It has virtually no compliace capability. Your geometry may require the bush to flex to take stress our of the chassis and linkages.
