What kind do you want? Factory replacement rubber? Polyurethane? Are you planning to replace all at some point or just the upper control arms?

Some links . . .

I got a set of lower control arms from a guy on craiglist and he threw in a set of upper for free, he said the bushings were shot... so my first choice would be poly, is that something you have to order or can you get it from an auto parts store?

I think MM suggests replacing them with stock rubber. The uppers are literally there to bind up the suspension already in order to prevent articulation. Putting stiffer bushings there will only further bind up the rear.
