Can look at Energy Suspension's stuff... see their bump stop page at: http://www.energysuspension.com/bsp2.html
Wow, I thought they were all universal parts... but a few look close to the front LCA's design! Specifically:
9.9150 (http://www.summitracing.com , ENS-9-9150G or ENS-9-9150R, $14/pair)
9.9154 (ENS-9-9154G or ENS-9-9154R, $16/pair)
But I think 9.9150 is an exact match... cool. Anyone got measurements handy?
Cool; just noticed they sell the bumpers that are on the struts (on the piston, not visible to us because they're under the piston cover that hangs from the inner fender)- one of mine appeared to be cut in half! http://www.energysuspension.com/sk_bsp1.html, at the bottom of the page...

I just put GM style bump stops from Energy Suspension on my 85 IROC, purchased from Summit: ENS-9-9150R (R indicating color). Perfect OEM replacement.

When I rebuilt my front end I put original bumpers back in.. got them from classicindustries.com they still have them in their online catalog..
I have since switched to the energy suspension poly bumpers to get a little more travel with my lowered suspension..
