Must be the new "space saver" bushings coming out of China, saves space on the boat they come over on

FYI...

Some leaf springs use different sizes from the front eye to the back...at least on my older Toyota and Nissans way back when. I haven't checked my Ranger yet.

On a lot of LS, the front eye will be the bigger and the rear eye will be smaller.

Check to confirm.
