New rear shock mounts or bushings
Any idea where I can get new C5 rear shock mounts or just the replacement bushings?
Down to just one car right now and can't take the bushings to the auto parts store to do a matchup.
Thanks!

generic ones should work - the size would be 10mm or 3/8 for the inner diameter energy suspension makes poly ones (part number 9.8101g or 9.8101r ) that are very similar in size to the ones bilstein makes. http://www.energysuspension.com/univ...-bushings.html
Note the OD of the energy ones is 1.25" so they will be a bit smaller than the bilstein or oem ones
you could also just buy used shocks from corvette recycling to get oem style mounts (note the C6 shocks cost less than the C5 ones on their site)
good luck!
