I want to keep this car on the road...
Right now I've got a brake hose that I need to put in,  but the major problem 
I'm looking at is some bushings,  that apparently are part of what holds a 
sub-frame to the body -- it's a Dodge Monaco.
Auto parts stores have all sorts of other bushings,  but not these.
The dealer shows them,  but the price is total insanity -- there are 
apparently four sets of these things,  in pairs,  and while they only want 
around $14 for the uppers,  they want $80 (!) for the lowers.  That's *way* 
too much!
Can anybody suggest other places where I might look for such stuff?  I don't 
think that it's gonna pay to look in a junkyard since what's there is likely 
to be in as bad condition as what I'm trying to replace...
