Front and rear bushings

HEllo. I am going to be adding leafs front and back on my 2006 fg. Would like to know if the bushings for the rear leafs are the same as the front leafs before I order them from Aus. How many do I need for the rears? Thanks
 
Hi Biggoolies
Having been through the adding leaves to springs, would consider an alternative. Here is a link to something I wrote some time ago. Hope this help?

Get 'em all from Tony.....you can even meet him in Ladner when he makes a trip to grab some inventory (Save $$)...I've got the fronts on mine (necessary for the 37x12.50 17's to fit)....I'd like to hear how your rears change things....
 
I purchased greasable shackles from Earthcruiser in Bend, Oregon. I'll second the above comment about adding leaves. After extensive experimentation I am currently running a 3 leaf front suspension/5 leaf rear without overload springs and am very happy with the results.
