Rear Suspension Bushings (Complete Replacement)

[SBPGT]

I just installed my Eibach springs, Steeda IRS Subframe Bushing Support and IRS Subframe Alignment Kit today. I notice that all the LCR rubber bushings are torn. I had planned to replace them next anyway.

But my question about the replacement bushings.

These are the bushing I need to replace on both sides. All the listing for these bushings are confusing.

Rear Lower Control Arm - Inner Foward Bushing Kit, Control Arm-/Trailing Arm Bush
This rear LCA bushing kit replaces the inner, front bushing of the rear lower control arm.

Do these "kits" replace the blue or the red outlined bushings on each side, or both bushings on one side? If only one bushing per side (red or blue) is there any option for the other bushing that is not in the kit.

The green outline bushing, I assume, is replaced with the Ford Performance toe link bushings.

LCR bushings: SuperPro, Steeda, Whiteline
Toe Link Bushing: Ford Performance (No longer listed for V6's?)

Any help appreciated. (Whenever I contact these companies I just get a generic reply like... "Yes, these replace the LCA stock bushings.)

Thanks

The kits replace the blue one. the red one is a spherical from the factory and therefore as good as it gets.

there's a (small) case to be made for replacing the one in #2 where #3 bolt goes thru.

Going through this myself.

What about the other bushing on the knuckle, opposite the one that can be replaced by the FP one (where the right #10 bolt is pointing)? Is there a replacement for that?

@SBPGT There are also LCA spherical bearings available from BMR: BK055, BK088 and Steeda: 555 4117. All three are more expensive, though.

A great video on the IRS showing the bonded/binding rubber bushings (8 on each side).

Maybe easier and cheaper to buy whole low milega assembly from midway mustang or recycler..
