With 130k miles on my 94 formula, I noticed pretty much all of my front bushings were rotted out. The ones in the front LCA's mainly. You already have the front LCA off the kmember right? If so you're ahead of the game. Most of the time the rear bolt will rust-weld itself to the sleeve inside of the old bushing. I also replaced my lower ball joints for good measure.

..and if you have some leftover coin, install the 98+ brakes.
