1978 Delta 88 Subframe bushing kit

I'm doing a frame off restoration on my Holiday. I figure while I'm to this point, I might as well replace the subframe bushings. The trouble is where can I find them or what can I use that interchange with them.

What kind of subframe has been installed on the car?

These cars are body-on-frame construction with full perimeter frames. Body mount pucks should be same as a similar year Impala/Caprice, if you can find those.

Yep, that's a full frame car. Believe '77 to '85 are pretty much the same, in terms of mount locations and type.

If your car is a 78 it's body on frame. If it's 20 years newer from 98, then you do indeed have a front subframe that would need bushings eventually.

I do have bushings on the front on the framework that the radiator sits on.

Does anyone have any links or sizes that would work? It seems to have a bushing on each side that is not bolted too
