I can’t for the life of me find out what to buy to replace this bushing

Any help is greatly appreciate!
 
That is a bolt going through the frame side mount, not a bushing in any of it. What about it leads you to think something needs to be replaced?
There’s a rubber piece that looks like it goes around it which made me think it might have been a bushing. The reason I’m looking to replace it is because there is a little bit of play in it when I try to move it by hand. Not sure what I need to replace

There should not be any rubber where the bolt goes through the mount. If the bolt is loose in the mount, then the bolt needs to be tightened to its correct torque value.

As said before - if the bolt is loose it needs to be tightened (or replaced). However I’d guess it’s the actual joint, which looks to be a heim joint. Which heim joint depends on what trackbar you have (I don’t recognize that one from this view).

Might be Rubicon Express. But that doesn't matter. The rod end just needs to be the right size and thread. FK would be a good choice for a rod end used in a bad location.
