Default Which Bushings to Change During Spring/Shock Swap?

I'll be swapping the springs and shocks for the later gen, and I'm just wondering what bushings I should replace once we are in there. They gotta be pretty tired after 30 years!

My plan was to buy the full kit, but as it's out of stuck right now, I was wondering what I could piece together to get me through this project.

Erik,
Super Pro bushing, go to their web site (Super Pro) located in Australia or the North American office number 650 362 8016.
You will not regret the installation of Super Pro bushing.
