      I too looked it up om Gm parts direct. from the diagram it looks like the bushing and bracket may be packaged with the axle assembly. But the bracket can be bought separately for about 12$ (GM parts direct price). So id look into the possibility that the bushing comes with the bracket.

      its #3, if it has its own number on the diagram, its available by itself. If it is also bracketed, it is also part of the bigger unit.

      the problem with the schematics, is no part numbers.

      hhhhhmmmm.. i dont know were he went to order the part from i pretty sure it was the dealer and stood there and argued with them about how he should be able to get just the bushing. but i had it in the dealer a while ago and they said my rear axle or whatever was bent so i guess im just gonna replace the whole thing hes giving it to me at his cost so yeah

      The rear axle on my '07 broke at the weld (rust belt car). Needed a new one. > $1,000.
