Exclamation Bushings!

Ok, my car has been rattling over bumps and sounding like its taken quite a beating. I want to replace most if not all the bushings in the car this winter, so without buying a set (unless someone can suggest a good one) , I am planning on going to mazda for:

Front controll arm bushings
Front tension rod bushings
Front swaybar end link bushings
Rear controll arm bushings
Rear watts link bushings
Rear swaybar end link bushings

Is this all Im gonna need or what else? Also my rear swaybar on the left side broke off one of the little washerlike perches for the bushings pretymuch making it useless so Ill just get a rear endlink while im there too right? Im not missing anything am I?

If you're going to Mazda, ask for some **** lube too, because they will **** you on the prices.

Check with www.mazdatrix.com and search the forum... They are cheaper places to go.
