There are three front lowers that I am aware of:

84 all models
85-87 all models
88 all models

If I recall from my 88 Pontiac brochure, the GT/Formula used different bushings than the coupe. By now that's irrelevant. The stampings are the same.

I believe this is correct.
I also read, somewhere, that at one time there were two different part numbers for each lower control arm. Formula/GT and coupe.

But by now, all the bushing are probably the same. Shot.
