I just ordered a set from British Parts Northwest. Prices seemed OK and
they can answer any question you have about 'em. Haven't installed or
tried them out yet. Going by the recommendations I got from lurking on
this list. : )

When I ordered they had everything I needed in stock, including all the
poly suspension bushings.
Good Luck
