1012303 is the metal sleeve that goes in the bushings. It's for a DS. 102506401 is the metal sleeve for a Precedent spring. The rubber bushings should work fine either way. It's the sleeve that's causing the issue.

Just because that's what they send out doesn't make it the right part !.I would tell them to either send the right parts or you want your money back and you will get the bushings from some place that has them.Don't fall for "you'll have to pay shipping to return those bushings",if they were the right parts and you just didn't want them then yes but shipping the wrong parts NO!.

Just ordered the sleeves from East Coast with part # matching the one David posted. Been waiting on resolution from the original order. they act like Im crazy when I tell them the error they made (and must be continuing to make). The sleeves were only a couple of bucks each. Not wasting anymore effort on original unnamed company. Will not patronize them again. Thanks for the help, guys!

If you ordered just the sleeves you may have a problem, the bushing hole should be smaller also, unless the sleeve is really thick to make up that difference or the hole is really tight, maybe I'm wrong but you better find out.

OD is the same on old and new hole in bushing. The only difference is the smaller ID which is a result of a thicker wall sleeve. Old sleeves fit in new bushings and I ordered OEM part number so should be good.
