the U/L arm kit i plan to get doesnt have a poly bushing that goes to the rearend. should i go ahead and get one or leave my stocker in? i figured it would eb fine since people say the axle will be more apt to bind up with all poly bushings, so i figured leaving that stocker would help out. plus i heard lots of people dont even change upper arms anyways.
leaving stock rubber bushing for upper control arms?

I have left the rubber upper in all of mine.
For street use, I would definitely leave it.
So far, my 82 has gotten to high 1.8 sixty foots with all of the stock, 1980 rubber bushings still in the control arms.

poly's in the lowers are fine, but if you put them in the uppers they are going to put more stress on your torque boxes and they do bind easier than rubber ones. I'd get some replacement rubber ones for your stock uppers or just buy some stock FRPP uppers with bushings in them already and box them before you put them back on.
