Torque arm bushing
I was under my car this morning replacing the rear shocks since I had a little wheel hop and vibration under accel in first and second. Anyway, I got to checking out other stuff while it was on the lift and noticed that my torque arm bushing in in 3 pieces!! I didnt know it could break like that. Anyway, where can I buy a replacement? Should I buy poly? Also, should I replace the tranny mount while I am there? The shocks dractically helped the wheel hop and vibration but I think this will solve the issues!

Are you talking about the stock torque arm bushing (a.k.a. the clamshell)? If so, it came from the factory in two pieces (could look like 3 I guess if you looked at it right). They just kinda sandwich together...works quite well actually. I only ask because you don't list an aftermarket torque arm as one of your mods...

If it is all tattered than no it isnt normal, and I would replace that and your trans mount with poly urethan mounts. They will last longer but can also bring more vibration to the ride since they wont absorb it.
