I have the entire front end done.I buddy of mine gave me the kit.I could never seem to get the rear ones to fit the control arms.
So the rear is stock and the front urethane.

I like the poly bushings...however I notice the sway bar frame mounts can be noisy/sqeaky. They need to be lubed with silicone/wd-40 so it won't sound like a junker.

When I redid my 1976 Firebird I went with the Polygraphite bushings. They are impregnated with graphite so they don't squeak. Loved em, tighted everything up, made the car more responsive, and they were quiet. I don't know if they have them for the stangs though but I can't imagine why they wouldn't. I bought my last set from PST good deal not overly expensive and it was a whole kit.
