Part number for leaf spring (rear) bushing?

[all4ford]

I am having a terrible time trying to remove the bushing that goes through the frame on my 95 Explorer. It's the bushing that is located at the top of the spring shackle. I found the link in the "stickys" to a great deal of available bushings. Does anyone have a part number or know what size it is? By the time I remove this one, I'm afraid there won't be much left to measure.

I've found the best way to remove them is with some heat from a propane torch. Be careful they will smoke and give off some toxic fumes also will start on fire.
Replace them with new bushings.

Pete, thanks for the reply.. I have that one for the leaf spring. I found this, hopefully it's what I'm looking for.

I might be wrong but this should fit and you get the whole shackle.

I ended up ordering the Prothane 6-810 bushing. I didn't have access to a lathe to turn down the shackle pin as the post (link ) above, so I drilled the bushing to 7/8" diameter. This bushing fit perfectly and the problem is finally resolved. hank you everyone for the help.
