Question Poly Bushings for '67 Body C10

Can anybody tell me if polyurethane body bushings are available for a '67 C10 LWB truck and if so who sells them. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gary

not worth the extra money on a street driven truck the ride and vision quality sucks because of the harsh rigidity, loads of guys have dumped them after a few hundred miles.

factory rubber mounts work good

for a daily driver id stick to rubber mounts, polys are just to stiff and youll really feel the jolts from the road compared to rubber. granted they do last longer though,

Got mine from Classic parts, hopefully they aren't too harsh.

I think I am gonna go with the poly mounts when I get to that point. Rubber just doesn't hold up well.

For what I want to do, I think they may be too soft. Autocross baby!

And, mine were already turned into dust by the time they were 30, so I don't think they last as long as the rest of the truck.
