The upper bushings are still available, but are about $45 each from CVI in Sweden. They are supposedly very difficult to replace requiring special tools. The entire control arm assembly with bushings already installed is also available new for about $200 each.
I once saw a discussion on the board about the possibility of using a 140 upper A-arm with ploy bushings as a simpler, low cost alternative. However, there were no follow-ups to confirm if anyone had ever tried this.
