What's the best replacement option for a 2008 Case 340B rear suspension when the bushings are completely worn out?

[Frank Zimmerman]

Looking for advice from anyone who has dealt with rear suspension problems on a Case 340B haul truck, especially around the 2008 models. The suspension bushings on ours are destroyed, and the local dealer's pricing honestly shocked me. We were quoted around $30K CAD for replacement parts through Case, so before spending that kind of money, I started taking measurements and comparing components. From what I can tell, the truck appears to use a Hendrickson 100K style suspension or something very close to it.

$30K CAD is definitely a tough pill to swallow If it really matches a Hendrickson 100K setup, you might save a lot going aftermarket or rebuilt. I’d just double-check the pivot measurements and torque specs before ordering anything, since even small differences can turn into alignment headaches later.
