Hello Randy, thanks for reaching out. The Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit # K71-359-00 comes with 8 bronze bushings. One for each leaf spring eye on a tandem axle setup. The equalizers should come with bushings pre-inserted so the kit should have enough for a whole tandem axle suspension setup. Are you short a bushing? Where do you have each bushing placed? Let me know and I will see what I can do to help.

Hey Randy, what ended up happening with the bushings on your tandem axle setup using the Dexter suspension kit? Were you able to confirm that the equalizers already had bushings installed? Your update could make it easier for the next person sorting out the same setup.
