250sx rear shock bushings??

[Chris070780]

I got a problem. I have 250sx that the rear shock bushing is shot along with the rubber that goes in there also. The end of the shock that connects to the swing is missing the bushing and the rubber. I ordered the bushing, but the rubber has been discontinued! What can I do? Can I run without it? anyone know if any newer ATVs that use the same setup?

You might try using a piece of radiator hose for the rubber bushing. I did this on another machine and it held up for quite a while ( 2-3 years ). ;)
