I did check both Summit and Energy Suspension.
I didn't see anything on the Energy Suspension website and did call them. They told me, "Sorry, the VehiCross was made in such low numbers for us to even put a kit together for it."
Summit had nothing on their website about bushings for the VX. I looked at all 101 results they had listed on their site.
The discussion on the greaseable bushing kits for the front and rear sway bars I already saw. I was looking more for the front lower and upper control arms, sway bar end links, ball joints, etc in polyurethane.
I seem to remember someone saying before that the VehiCross was pretty much a different body put on top of a short wheel base Trooper. I'm just wondering how similar they are and if the same bushings on the smaller Trooper would work on the VehiCross also.

You could try Independent4x...
Independent4x has some items under the Izuzu category. I'm sure if you give them a call, they can hook you up the right pieces..

I'm surprised that Moncha hasn't spoken up yet. I think he replaced his sway bars a while ago, and when he did he used greaseable poly bushings in place of the stock ones. May have to do a search for sway bar bushings to find it.

What's up Clyde,
I found a few other sites that may be decent sources for asking about the interchangeability of Trooper and VX suspension parts.
www.mwior.com -- Midwest Isuzu Offroad.
www.4x4wire.com is an all makes board, and it's been said that it has possibly the best isuzu tech forum.
www.planetisuzoo.com is another isuzu board.
Parts and tech can also be obtained from:
www.independent4x.com (Matt)
www.darlington-offroad.com (Joe)

Something else to consider is almost all the parts slaped under the VX body are from the Trooper RS. You may try to cross reference those part and see what you find.
