What the heck is thing called?

We're at the front of the car.

There's an arm that runs back from the lower control arm to a bracket, which is attached to the frame with two big donut-like bushings.

In my manual they call it a "brake control rod," other places they call it a "camber control rod" or just a "guide rod." Google it, and there it is in the pictures.

But I've been looking online for bushings and they're not showing up under these names.

I can't believe that nobody sells a set of bushings for this thing, whatever it's called, so what the heck is my problem here? Am I just being totally dumb? (happens from time to time...)

Are they called something else now?

Any comment - even if you just want to tell me that yes, I'm being totally dumb here - will be appreciated!

Thanks.
