Give Way Motor Works a call, he has started collecting cars for parts. If he can't help, he should be able to steer you in the right direction. He also answers emails over the weekend....

Rear lower, specifically just the drivers side but a set should be fine! Mini4tide, I am sending you a PM now.

Ummm...only issue is, if you are installing coilovers, you are probably going to need adjustable lower control arms in the rear to be able to get it aligned right anyways...

I know there is no way my car would have been able to get a decent alignment after my coilover install with the stock control arms.
