The 1LE bushing were mostly manufactured for GM by Moog.
Sam Strano carries them most of the time.
I bought mine from a local OReilly's auto parts. LOL
Part Number MOOG-K6178 They call them Moog Problem solvers.
I'm sort of still thinking about trying some delrin equipped LCAs.

I noticed that you are uneasy on what exactly you want to do. So I am just going to through this out there for you as another option. Even if you do replace the bushings with a problem solver give it a few years and you will be back in the same position your in now. And when you go with a roto joint with delrin yes they will break down to eventually but as long as they are properly greased you will have not problems with the delrin and will last for many years. And they also allow for articulation and eliminate any binding issues that could be caused by a rubber bushing. Like mentioned before just consider this food for thought. This is a topic everyone has there own opinion and its YOUR car so you are going to do want you want, and how you want the vehicle to handle. So if you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Thanks

Hi Brad,
Thanks for your reply.
I'm considering one of the two different options in black.
Part #: 2034 Dual Roto-Joint Combination.
Part #: 2035 Double Adjustable Control Arms- Roto-Joints.
Would you happen to know the weight on those both types of control arms ?
What keeps the Roto-Joint race from coming loose ?
