I'm boxing my stock rear control arms so I figured I might as well replace the bushings. I want to install the 1LE bushings from the third gen camaro's. The dealer didn't show them and the local parts store has them in sets of 2 for $21. Is $84 the cheapest I will find these bushings? This is for my 79 Cutlass.

I actually had the first post wrong I called the dealer and they told me part #10164152 are $13.05/bushing! That seems a little high. Now thats almost $112 with tax for 8 1LE bushings. I'm not sure if they're worth it now. I plan to get SC&C's 3 Link down the road. New bushings and boxing the stock arms is going to hold me over until Marcus comes out with the new rear suspension and until I get the money. Maybe I should just get 4, enough to do the lowers or should I just go for all 8?

I've figured out, on MalibuRacing, that the $13 isn't bad since I get them at cost being that I work at an Auto Repair Shop. I think i'm gonna just go with 4 lowers and call it good since I will be getting the SC&C 3 Link down the road.
