Anybody got a good source? I want to have my (unstamped) spare rebuilt to 69 H/O specs. Thanks.

Have you considered rebuilding it yourself?

I haven't, truthfully. My skills are rusty, and I have no real place to clean parts, etc.
Are they reasonably straightforward to do?

The only place i could find bushings was at Corvette specialists. The lower bearing they sell is the same, the upper bearing was longer so it had to be shortended. The only trick about the bearings is getting them set to the same depth. I made some plates to the correct thickness so they will serve as stops when the new bushings are pressed in. Everything else - at least on mine - was just cleaning. I did bead blast the housing to make it look new. I keep meaning to gets some pics posted.
