Mike,
If you choose to replace your poly bushings, you should go back to stock, which is a much bigger job as they need to be pressed in, which necessitates removing all the A-arms from the car.
Here they are:

Note that the price says ‘or make offer’. He will normally sell them for substantially less than the full listed price, so if you choose to go this route, bargain with him.
Lubing your current poly bushings is easy and cheap so you might want to start off with that and only switch if you aren’t satisfied with the results....
