One option, the factory replacement upper mounts are still available. Check your local parts store for Moog or other brands.

If you go with OEM, I believe the Z-28's and IROC's had a bearing, where the cheaper models had a bushing ...

Jeff, will check that out. I don't remember seeing that before but will check, have access to many examples. The ones I dug out of the shed have bushings. Will price new pieces also. Nice Kit shown there, maybe in the spring time.
