Have you considered going to urethane bushings. Last way longer, more positive feel, but a little stiffer ride. They'll squeak if you don't grease 'em up enough during assembly. (Think that's enough? Add more. Too much is just about right!)
I bought a complete kit for $140.00. +shipping.
The kit included;
-the upper & lower front A-frame bushings
-front sway bar end links & bushings
-body mounts
-leaf spring bushings
-tranny mount
-ball joint grease boots
I ordered separately the rear sway bar bushings. Additional to the $140.00. I don't have a hoist, so this stuff was a pain to install. Well worth the effort, though.

Ebay. Item #140485748371. $204.99 on a buy it now. I bought mine by auction, so I got it a little cheaper.

The urethane bushings reuse the stock inner sleeves. Just be sure yours are not rusted away any, that will wear your new bushing in no time. After 2 sets I went with OE style ones from CarQuest that came with all new inner and outter sleves.

Check out energy suspension too. I think my girlfriends upper a arm bushings were just under $200

I just installed new oe bushing in it and they came with the sleeves mine had a little rust on them.
