SkyJacker Leaf Spring Bushings

I have a 98 XJ with a skyjacker 3" lift. The rear leaf's are skyjackers, and the bushings are shot. I called skyjacker to get the right part # and they told me they just used the factory size bushings, so I went and got a set, burned the old ones out, and noticed when I went to install the new (OEM bushings) that they were way to big. Can anyone tell me where I can find the right bushings for these springs?

Thanks

Well there are two sizes in factory spring bushings: front and rear (of the spring). Which bushings did you get and which ones are you installing?
 
Try Rockkrawler,the springs came with two piece bushings,poly.They almost were able to be pushed in by hand.

Well after prying the trade secrets out of Skyjacker they finally gave me the info. They use a Dayton bushing and the part numbers are RB153 (Main Eye) and RB140 (rear eye). Luckily it only took 3 hours of talking to some dope giving him all the dimensions off of their spring to come up with the right part number. Now all I have to do is find someone that either sells Dayton or can cross ref. the part number for me.
