www.50resto.com They have the bushings and sway bar pins and bushings. Buy their kit. I bought one for each of my cars. They come in red and black. Just make sure you order the right size.

Best thing, and it's what I did, because I don't have a micrometer. Get a set of metric and standard open end wrenches. I took both types and put them on the sway bar, and whatever wrench fits the tightest without any play...........order that size sway bar bushing. One car was 1 1/4" my Cobra was 29mm, and my 91 notch was 15/16". It worked for all three of my cars....
