Default control arm bushings

I just bought a older used Rubicon express 4.5 inch lift kit. The upper and lower control arm bushing are completely shot. I remember hearing that the RE bushing are not good so what would you guys recommend replacing them with?

Many years ago there was a problem with RE bushings, not anymore. The new PTMEG bushings are now covered by their Lifetime Warranty.

So these bushings: http://www.seriousoffroadproducts.co...a01a7f0d575d57

would they be for the frame end of the upper control arm, or the axle end/is there even a difference. I'm putting on rough country uppers, but can't seem to find the new bushings for the axle end anwhere.

Those will fit the axle, and possibly the frame-side of the upper arms a s well. Since I don't know which arms you have I can't be certain.
