Elgin/Sears trailer parts

Hi, Does anyone know were I can find parts for an Elgin trailer model number 254-61500? I need to find a replacment for the round rubber bushing that is used for the suspension on the trailer. Here are some pictures:

Sorry to say but I think you're going to be up that creek with no paddle.

I have a very large trailer shop nearby and had a bushing in one spring rot out. Took that in to them and was told that no one has used or produced rubber spring bushings in many years. Now add the fact that you are looking for something that was probably OEM to begin with I would guess to say that it is nonexsistant.

You may have to design a new way to mount that axle. Is it possible to pound out that broken stud? Sorry I couldn't be more help.

You could try a semi-truck body shop. The mounts you have look too big for a pick-up or van. The diameter is ok but the height is kind of tall these days even for a 1 ton. Called lots of names, body/cab mounts is the most common. We always call them hockey pucks, and yes they are still being used. The off-road boys will have a line on them also. That's the quick way of raising the body off the frame for a couple of inches of room for the big tires. good hunting.
