I figured some might be interested in doing this project. So far, I've replaced the following:
-rear track rod bushings
-front & rear sway bar bushings(25mm & 21mm)
-one of the rear control arms(uugh, 3 more to go)
The results are impressive so far. With the sway bars done, the body stays flat around corners. The one control arm in the rear even makes a huge difference in tightening things up. Alot of people seem to think that these bushings transfer alot of noise, its the opposite. Frankly, I find the truck with much less noise. I will say, its a bear removing the old metal shells for the bonded rubber bushings on the rear control arms but the results are worth it. I'm not looking forward to the upper front control arm bushings. :beer:
