Here's a dumb question. I pull my control arms out, and had the shop press my new bushings and balljoints into them. They look nice. Now, I sent them out with whatever coil spring isolators still in them, and got them back without. I don't remember if I need 2 or 4. Anybody know for a fact or have a manual? Have any good part numbers to reference? Have any for sale?

Thanks Guys.
 
GM part number 15597425 should be what you need. Two total. I tape them to the top of the spring before installing.

Ok, I had to do a lot of research, but finally found them. GM no longer makes them, can't get them, etc. The ONLY place I found I could get them from was JCWhitney. They are Raybestos. Nice pieces. Put them in this weekend. Funny though, they didn't go in the control arm like I thought, went into the frame. Turns out the old ones were still there, it was just the right spring never seated correctly, so that the spring noise I was hearing. Oh well, its all quiet now and I know that I don't have to do this again for at least 20 years...
