Measure, and start looking in places like an energy suspension catalog...swaybar bushings, control arm bushings, shock eye bushings, I'd be surprised if there's not something close-enough out there somewhere.

Yeah they have no rubber there just a shouldered bushing all metal. I figured since it was a popular shock for Buell someone might know what they are the seller said he lost it when he took the shock off.

worx said they would need to custom make one... i swear the ebay seller lost one on purpose so it would be a pain to install before the 30day exchange is up

I would ask around at a local machine shop then as it could easily be made on a lathe.

Thanks but no. I have three others. Two per end of shock so just need one. I can get one duplicated at a shop. For how much I paid I guess it's worth keeping no matter if it needs rebuild or not
