Question about bolts and washers

I need to replace the washers on my Banshee Screams suspension linkage, the stock washers are plastic-like material, which is not available at the local hardware store. I tried rubber and it blew out quickly as expected. Can I use metal? Maybe a soft metal?

Also, does anyone know where I can find replacement bolts. Banshee is difficult to get in touch with and they are some kind of specialized bolt. I thought maybe someone has had a similar issue and could suggest a website that carries specialty bolts. I have even tried to get a bike shop to contact banshee without success.

I believe that you are referring to the "bushings". You will need specific ones for your bike’s make and model. You might also need some lock-tight for the the bolts as well; probably the blue stuff.

Lookng at your picture. I think your going to have to contact the LBS that you got the frame from or Banshee directly..Those bolts are considered components of the bike and not reqularly produced…
