If you have stock arms, you would be better off replacing the whole arm instead of having to press the old ones out and the new ones in.

Haha! I shall expect excellence from you, sir!
Good luck! I'm trying to get ahold of new bushing for my RE arms right now too, their "reorganization" right now is screwing with that. Here is my email convo with Scott from Dirt Fab Offroad:
Robert,
I received your order for the Rubicon Express Super-Flex bushings with sleeves. Unfortunately, Rubicon Express closed their doors for "re-organization". I am in contact with the folks trying to re-open Rubicon Express and was hoping they would be open again by now. It is clear that they will not be shipping parts for several more weeks at a minimum. I will refund your money tonight as I cannot get the product at this time. Sorry for any inconvenience. I will begin to remove Rubicon Express products from my site until they re-open.

RE's Super Flex bushing's aren't a common size, you can't easily swap in another companies bushings in there. I've seen people hack off the end, and swap on another sized end w/ new bushing on it though.
I'm gonna just hold off until RE comes back open. My bushings aren't terrible yet, but they're gonna need to be addressed before too long.
