Title: anybody know where to get these?
Post by: tb3 on February 18 2013, 10:33:07 PM
I need 5 or 6 of these.  I want new ones.
the local autozone don't carry them. I haven't checked anywhere else yet.  I'm in no hurry, so I figured I'd ask and see if anybody knew of a place that sells them at a better price.
their the front shock nuts that clip onto the lower control arm.

Try your local tractor/implement supplier.
They usually have all various sizes, well at least ours does.

You could probably get a few used ones from the TR junk dealers..

One thing to note - if an eBay seller doesn't include the GM PN, then they are probably still available from GM. Or, tMost of the time, of course.

Hmmm..
Original GM PN was replaced with this PN: 371964
