Is anybody repopping these? I have a lovely set of brackets ... just no bushings. I am considering doing a urethane casting, using the brackets as a mold. Is this feasable? Any sources for good original brackets and bushings?
I do not want to use the bushing / bracket provided in the current suspension kit packages, as they all require drilling the frame rail to install.

Thanks in advance.

The rears are the same as 69 B-Body fronts (pins, washers and bushings). They are available.

Are you talking about the sway bar end links or the rubber bushings that mount the bar to the rear frame rails?

I don't think anyone is offering the rear bushing. I will need some as well.

I have the endlinks and bushings. It is those pesky bushings that are in the brackets that bolt onto the rear frame rails that are needed.

I've asked the same question a few times over the years. So far no one makes them. People have said just to buy an aftermarket rear swaybar kit but they don't look factory.

It looks like I will be re-using my origonal ones. Maybe you could modify a different bushing to fit. Get a bushing with the same ID but shave off the OD to fit into the bracket?

Call Martin St. Pierre at Super Tuff Performance (859) 332-2796. They make repros bushing/bracket combos for the e and b-body cars. I bought some for my roadrunner last year for $25 a piece.

Thanks Ron! E-mail didn't go through. Called the number shown and left a voice message. Did a web search on "Super Tuff Perfomance" and got a new products listing on the Mopar Muscle website.
The photo looks like a home run! Hope Martin will get back to me.
