Ok so I got the part numbers for the sway links but what are the part numbers for the bushings? This is what I want right

Several of the guys are using aftermarket Poly bushings, others are going to GM and using the stock rubber type. I don't have any part numbers for you though...... I haven't replaced mine yet. I don't think Moog makes the bushings, so you probably won't find a Moog number for those.....

The search continues... lol, this poor car has had sooooo many issues, I had the rear main seal oil leak... 800 bucks from chevy to drop the motor and fix that, rims I bought the car with were shot, busted windshield, broke both side of the windscreen clip on the sunroof, (chevy wanted 350, I did it for 12 bucks and 4 rivets), my torque converted acted up last summer, thank god it hasn't done it since. If it wasn't cheaper to keep her I wouldn't... Loved the car, still love the car, hate the Chevy engineers....
Thanks for the prompt response, I hope someone posts the bushing part numbers, seems a lot of people have bought them according to this thread....

Can anyone tell me the suspension type of a 06 LT 2.4? Is it FE5 or FE1, I went to the MOOG site and typed in K750012 and it said there was a part but not for my car, emailed MOOG and they said didn't make parts for HHRs. A ebay dealer said that it would work for all FE5 suspensions,,, I know its a universal part though...
