    So after a fun trip to windrock for the concert and some amazing Off-roading I found this (in pic) and wonder how screwed am I, how to fix, and what I'm looking for in terms of parts for the broken rubber also it spins. Like I can rotate the black peice that rubber is connected to.

    Looks like you need a new top hat and isolator. Not bad if you do it yourself. Unsure of shop rates as I do everything myself. Probably not a bad time to upgrade by the looks of it.

    There are so many options when it comes to suspension. Really depends how you use the truck, how much weight has been added, how much lift you want, how you want it to ride and how much you want to spend.

    Just search here, FB,or craigslist. Pickup new takeoffs from someone whom switched out oem suspension. Less expensive and easy change out. That or upgrade to something like 5100's.

    Those are rubber isolators. you'll probably hear a creaking noise when turning and or the suspension is loaded on that side. Fix could be cheap, new top hat that will come with the isolator and bushings. If you do it yourself you will need a spring compressor to remove the top hat. I dont think a shop would charge that much to change it out
