This is a genuine Freightliner rear suspension spring bushing, often listed as a heavy-duty (HD) version. It’s the rubber-isolated pivot point that mounts the rear leaf spring to the truck’s frame or shackle, absorbing road shock and allowing the spring to flex as you drive. You replace it when you hear clunking from the rear end, see missing or cracked rubber, or notice uneven tire wear—symptoms of a worn-out bushing that no longer keeps the spring aligned properly. A fresh bushing restores ride quality, keeps rear axle alignment in spec, and protects the leaf spring eyes and shackle brackets from metal-on-metal damage.
Fitment list is per Wheeler Fleet Solutions cross-reference. Wheeler notes additional vehicle applications may exist but are not listed. The part is primarily found in medium-duty Freightliner-family (Sterling, USPS-spec SC8000) and International 4400/7-Ton rear leaf-spring suspensions. Always verify against your VIN or existing bushing dimensions before ordering.
