Default Tempest/Lemans rear spring insulators?

My buddy asked me to talk to you guys about where to find the rear spring insulators for his Lemans. He recently replaced the springs and he said the original rubber at the top of the springs were shot. Are these reproduced? How about some made of polyurethane? Thanks.

P.S. I know both of these cars interchanged springs with other models, maybe they used the same parts.

I try not to buy from them, overpriced and shipping is pricey! Anyone else?

Sure... Performance Years part number RPU186 or RPU190 depending on the year it is. Either $6 or $16 per pair. Check it out. (BTW... I had to trim a little off the end of mine. Maybe an inch or two)

also 73 and later rear spring insulators can be fitted to the bottom of the spring for an even quieter ride.
