What's this post about? According to the time clock labels as I view this thread, your original popst was made 7 hours ago and this post was 6 hours ago. Are you so bloody impatient and egotistical that you think nobody has anything better to do on a work day ... which also happens to be election day ... than sit around and answer your questions IMMEDIATELY?

Grow up.

almost any 4wd shop should stock them or be able to order them. WHen you replace it make sure to get the wide diameter one (stock are pretty big but some aftermarket are small). ANyways you will want ot replace both upper and lower bushing: it means removing the shock and then reinstalling it

Autozone and Advance Auto/Kragen have them in the HELP brand misc hardware section.

The biggest reason they give up is flexing the front end to where the shock is the limiting factor, which by the way is a bad idea. Normally around here, they don't go bad before the shock simply wears out, but I've heard that some of the salts used on the roads can cause premature failure in some areas.
