1967/72 Radius Rod Bushings / Axle Pivot Bushings
Where are these so-called Pitman Arm bushings you need to replace located?
Are you sure you don't mean the radius rod bushings? There's one front / one rear per side.
2) C5TZ3B203E .. Front Radius Rod Bushing / MSRP each: $8.63 / FTEpartsguy.com price: $6.22
2) C5TZ3B203D .. Rear Radius Arm Bushing / MSRP each: $7.91 / FTEpartsguy.com price each: $5.70
The radius arm bushings are the same 1965/74. 1975/79 are different (they're larger).
As original: The two axle pivot bushings (C5TZ3B177A) have a steel liner molded into the rubber. I'm not sure if these are still available from Ford or not.
EDIT: They're obsolete. See post #6 for further info.

$75.00 is an outrageous price. I forget what the original price was, but it was no more than $15.00 each.
I just called greensalescompany.com (800-543-4959) located in Cincinnati, OH.
They have them: $40.00 for the pair + shipping.

Since you didn't say beforehand you have an F350, I assumed you had an F100 or F250.
Your profile makes no mention of F350 either. Please put all the pertinent info into posts when asking questions.
F350's take different radius rod bushings: They are F350 only!
2) C7TZ3B177A / Green Sales has 10 = $20.00 each + shipping.
