I just purchased new poly bushing thru O'Reilly Auto Parts. They were $34.00. They won't have them on the computer but they can order them from am "ENERGY SUSPENSION" supplier.

Unfortianatly for me I have a 68 and those are for 69+

I was hopping that soemone knew the part number for moog or such

I was trying to avoid poly but it may be my only choice, or to bite the bullet and buy new springs (4" lift) but I was waithing to do that untill I could get a longer driveline made (note drivetrain/powertrain not stock to truck)

Did you check w/ LMC? I believe the 67/68 front springs are the same as 69 and up, it's the rear springs that are different.
