Default 1947 front panhard(track) bar bushings?

Looking for a source for these new. I’ve called a couple of the big guys like Drake and Carpenter. Have not been able to find them yet.
Would shock bushings work for this? And if so does anyone have a source for just shock bushings?

Local parts stores have the rubber bushings or the nylon type. They should be able to find you some by the OD,ID and width.

I have a '47-48 panhard/track bar, very similar to the bar you have, on the rear of my '36, I have always used rubber shock mount bushings.
