We're tearing down the subframe. I'm about to remove the stabilizer bar and found a round cushion with a clamp hoding it in place in-board of each stabilizer to subframe clamp. They are not shown in the factory manuals.
Click my Sig link and go to the Stabil folder.
Is this OEM?
Does it ID my X44 as a million dollar car? <LOL>

Yes they are, they keep the bar centered in the brackets.

Why aren't they in the '69 Factory Sevice Manual?

Don't know why??

And just use poly when you put it back together b/c it will be a lot stiffer than the old stock rubber.

My car is now 100 percent ALL poly..

The swaybar bushings are available, but the two inner cushions (or whatgever you want to call them) are not available as far asI know, either as a stock peice, or aftermarket.

Check page 53 of the Factory Assembly Manual.
