New 911 owner with sway bar bushing question
 
I've had my 911 for about 2 months and I've lurked for a while on the forums.

It's a 1977 911s coupe. The engine was supposedly rebuilt. I don't know all the specifics of the rebuild but the engine is very clean, has not leaked a drop since I've had it, and no funny sounds or smoke. It came with the tensioner upgrade, 11 blade fan and msd ignition. So far I love the car. I acquired the car though a trade for my former 4 cyl z3 roadster and in comparison, the controls on the z3 feel like they were connected to a spoon stuck in a jar of peanut butter.

So, after getting used to what seemed like alien technology after opening the hood (trunk?), I've gone on to fix the small issues withe the car.

One rear drop link is bent and the rear sway bar bushings need to be replaced. I've searched quite a bit and it seems like the only option for the 74-77 cars is to go with rubber that are abound $25 apiece X 4. Is there any other bushing option for these cars besides upgrading to a later bar?

Thanks

yup - go to autozone and for around $20 you can gen universal greasable polyurethane sway bar mounts.
