You can use polyurethane bushings. Or try contacting blox to see if the OEM ones will fit. Then again, if the polyurethane fit...the OEMs should fit also.

Anyway.....if you do use rubber bushings again....MAKE SURE YOU CLOCK THEM OR YOU'LL TEAR THEM AGAIN.

you have to clock them... as in torque the bolts down while the suspension has load on it. like put a jack under the control arm and let the weight of the car down, then tighten the bolts. or just install the wheels, lower the car to the ground, and crawl under and tighten them.
those busings act like a spring in a way, and the bolts are unable to rotate in the bushing when they are tight. so if you tighten the bolts with the suspension just hanging there and let the car down, it'll rotate just the busing and tear it.
