Arrrg bushings!!!

I have looked every where and have failed to find what would seem to be a most basic part. I have looked every where for new trailing arm bushings for where the trailing arms mount to the torsion housing near the root of the frame forks. Let me be clear NOT the spring plate bushings, I can find those all day long. I need the ones that slide into the end of the arm that mounts to the torsion tube near the root of the frame forks. Any one have any leads??

i'm pretty sure i got mine from CIP1. i think BugPack makes some Urethane ones which you should be able to find just about anywhere. here are some from aircooled.net.

Are you saying "Diagonal Arm" bushings? They are also available from aircooled.net. Otherwise, "spring plate" bushings come 4 to a set. 2 inner, 2 outer and mount on each side of the spring plate at the torsion bar "cap." The diagonal arm bushings mount in the pivot where the 17 mm socket head "fitted" screw is, more inboard & close to the torsion bar anchor in the middle of the car but on the outside-rear of the torsion housing. $18.95 from AC.net. Part # SSG0004.
