[Dr. Jeckel]

Noticed a had at least one completely gone. Where can I buy these?
Thanks, james.

See your friendly GM dealer. Last I knew, they were about $5 per.

Guys like Kirban, who provides "kits", merely repackage GM stuff, adding considerable profit for themselves.

The trick is to get the right P/Ns and quantities - that's another story.

Thanks for the answers......again

Gm parts rep said that he couldn't find a part number for them.
JC Whitney doesn't have them, which would have been the cheapest place. Who has had to buy these and from where?

Just checked kirbans....$240 for a 24 peice set, I didn't know there were that many body mounts and for so much, OUCH!!!
Johns performance has a set of 6 for $75 but I'm not sure if those have the one I need for the far passanger side rear.

Ok, I checked summit racing and found a full set of polyurethane bushings from energy suspension for $107.99
I don't care if the ride is a little rougher, besides i'm only going to replace the ones that need it.

Doc,

Your GM guy isn't trying.

Tell him to look in Group 9.023.

Check gnttype.org for a diagram and P/Ns.

Let's see, 6 positions X 2 sides to the car X uppers and lowers = 24. Note Buick did not install all 24...

 

[Dr. Jeckel]

He said he could find a group number but no pricing for the mounts. He is going to call GM and see what he can find and I'll check back with him in a little bit. I'll call him in a few minutes and see what he has found out and i'll report my findings.
It would be nice to have all the peices though, because i know the other peices won't last forever.

Well after reading that post i have decied to just buy the whole kit from summit and save the hassal of part numbers and having to get more later. Thanks, james.

I can replace those needed when I install the hooker exhaust I plan to get at summit....what a fun day that will be, rolling around on the concrete under my car, oh what a joy

Yep, the Energy set from Jegs or Summit even have the missing "GNX" bushings for over the rear wheels. They really firm up the ride for the better.
