I got mine from <a href="http://www.paragon-products.com/" target="_blank">http://www.paragon-products.com/</a> They were only a few dollars for each one. I found the job to be very simple on my '83. I had to "hammer" the bushings into the metal brackets. I used a silicone spray to slide them onto the bar then. It was like butter.
Goodluck!

If you are going to replace the bushings, you may also want to consider replacing the drop-links, or at least giving them a good inspection.
I had to replace the drop-links that attach to the A-arms as one failed at the seam. I got all parts needed from Paragon.
Also, make sure that all of the drop-link connections are good and tight, as the connections to the body for the forward most drop-links were loose on my car – almost to the point of loosing one of the bolts.
