You grease them by dropping the keeper straps, separate
the bushing and give it the stinky pinkie. If you're looking
for zerks, I think you're out of luck (that thin sheet metal,
how are you going to mount a zerk anyway?).

Only the front's have the zerk fittings on them. As for where to get them, AutoZone should have them in stock.

Stock rear bushing is 19mm, right?
Front's have the option of 24mm(z28) or 32mm (on the SS) stock. Aftermarket is what ever.

Stock FRONT is 30mm on a Z28, 32mm on a SS
Stock REAR is 19mm but you can easily get a 21, 23, or 24mm bar from a thirdgen camaro or aftermarket.

Not sure if I can post the link, it is a thirdgen parts supplier so i think it is okay?

I agree, but I would think that if you were to drill a correctly sized hole for the zerk, all the way through the metal and poly, A)the zerk would go through the metal and also grab into the poly; and B)the grease would lube the bushing.
