Rear coil spring pad?

Hey all, I need new coil spring pads for the back of my 1988 Cougar to silence a horrible squeak. 

This is the part between the lower control arm and the rear spring.

Problem is, I can't find the stupid part. Not Ford, not any parts place...is there a similar fox body part that anyone has used before???

I'd recommend the polyurethane versions myself.  They'll last longer. 

They have them in black it looks like too....

Oh thank goodness.  Now I just need to test my devotion to rubber parts...or I'll get the rubber parts.

Once again, you guys rock!:evilgrin:
