The fronts were very common throughout many years,and used in nearly every GM vehicle back then like Buick-Olds-Pontiac-Chevrolet.
The original bushings they used on the Chevrolet line in 69 were #3711826.Those were soon superseded by #401267.Both have a 1-1/2 O.D. X 1-1/2 O.L.
I did find three of the NOS #826 bushings in the box over the weekend,but their boxes turned out to be empty.
Even if you do find 40 yearold NOS originals,chances are they won't be as pliable or dependable after all these years as you'll need them to be for your driving needs.

Take a look at Paragon Corvette,who sells a really nice new world reproduction kit of these,and at a very decent price too.

Also take a look @ JRsChevyparts,claiming they got some NOS but don't show a picture or price.Scroll down to Group 6.

Note that the seller states that 2 have "Harris" on them. I think the ones from TRW and Moog have that also in many cases.

Those were installed on 1974-75 Nova-Chevelle-Camaro & Impalas originally.

I got some that say Harris and some that don't say it. The Harris ones have some slight dry marks to them. Let me know.
