Rear Spring isolators

Does anyone know where I can get new rubber or polyurethane rear spring islators/ bushings. Thake you pick on what they are called. I have been to advance auto, NAPA, and called jegs. No one has them or can get them. I haven't tried GM i figured they would want something like $50 a piece or so.

Thanks
John

They're less then $10 each at the dealer. Also they have improved since orginal, these things are massive. Highly recommended.

Thanks

I was certainly not expecting them to cost that little, especially being a gm part.

Thanks again
John

Is it better to keep the rubber or go with poly?

Never heard of poly ones. I would buy the stock GM ones.
