Was this before or after the massive quantities of mind altering drugs
you were doing? :-)! Ha!  (ok, yeah, I'm mostly kidding about this too)

Anyway, the rebuildable ones are from very early Rabbits (like 75-76)
and Dashers.  They are a metal bottom portion that sorted looks like an
inverted bowl with a rubber (or poly) bushing inside it with a separate
metal top hat.  The strut retaining bolt goes against this top hat.
They are three to four pieces when all the inserts are removed.
I bought mine from (gasp!) Autotech years ago.

Yow, I'm in rare form tonight, somebody stop me before I kill again.
