I went through the painful process of trying to figure out what performance poly bushings the Mazda B2200 trucks take. Just like everything else, there are no listings for our trucks in any of the common polyurethane performance bushing catalogs or websites. While these are not exact match parts, they are extremely close to stock measurements. I have all these installed on my truck and know they fit and work properly.
These are for RED bushings, change the R to B for black parts (Energy Suspension parts only).

Anti-sway bar bushings (stock, 22mm front): Energy Suspension #9.5126 R

Sway bar end link KIT (front w/bolt and spacer for 1-2" drop): Energy Suspension #9.8120 R

Low profile (11/16") bump stop (front): Energy Suspension #9.9102 R

Front shock stem bushings: Energy Suspension #9.8126 R

Strut rod/radius arm (to chassis) bushings: Whiteline #W81157 (currently out of stock in the entire country)
* Moog #K9511 (poly/thermoplastic)
* MevoTech #MK9511 (poly/thermoplastic) <---I bought these
* MAS Industries #BRK74295 (poly/thermoplastic)

The only parts that needed any modification on MY truck was the end link bushings. I had to use the grinder (easiest way) to grind off the 1/8" nub to get the nut to thread onto the bolt... or just go out and buy a 1/2" longer grade 8 bolt for each side! I haven't had the time to figure out the lower shock bushing part number yet, or the control arm bushings. Hope this makes things easier for everyone else!

What about the Poly bushings for the rear leaf springs? ( a whole kit ) Did you replace those by chance?

Not yet. I am trying to figure out some possible bushings to make it work.

WHITELINE makes a set, but they're pricey.
*Rear Spring Shackle Bushings (in frame) #W71215
*Rear Spring Eye Rear (in spring) #W71136
*Rear Spring Eye Front (in spring) #W72065


I found several bushings that are close to what is needed. The Energy Suspension bushings are a lot more realistically priced. My rear bushings (leaf and shackle) are shot on both sides. The front eye bushings of my rear leaves needs to be replaced, and those are the ones I am having problems finding.

There's a place in CA that sells Energy Susp bushings individually. This guy is smart with a complete catalog of bushings, ID's, OD's, lengths, etc. He needs exact dimensions though, nothing like "close to 1.75".

" target="_blank -- is his site (not sure if the link is allowed - sorry if it's not acceptable.)

The ones that will work for the rear leaf and rear frame shackle are Energy Suspension's part #2047 (ya need 8 ). These are NOT exact fit parts but they should be close enough to work.
The front eyes are sleeved, possible Energy Suspension part #15.10.508.39 (not in stock (4-5weeks)), but those sleeves are too short, so you'll have to use two and cut one to fit. Not sure which bushings to go with yet on those, but they will likely need to be drilled out, maybe the #2047 bushings drilled to accept the sleeve.

Ahh, good times.....
