Replacement subframe bushings 00 GT

Well, now that I have all new suspension, I need to get on replacing all the subframe mounts. I've read some threads and have some differing opinions. Here's some of the one's I've seen mentioned so hoping someone can confirm which would be better, or if there is something else out there that'll work best. I know there has been some discussion on the re-use of the subframe bolts, so I'd like to know if I should bother to replace those too. At this mileage it may be worth it just for piece of mind.

04+ impala fe4 police package are firmest they should have a green line around them

05 comp g. Stiffer and cheaper bushings
 


Subb'd. Curious as well. I would replace the steering rack bushings as well while your at it, if you haven't already.
 
Do you have part numbers for those? Rockauto only shows dorman ones and they are the same ones for both those vehicle.
 
I'll see if I can dig up part numbers.

New rack w/ bushings went in about 100K ago. Guess it couldn't hurt to re-check em.
 
True. Might as well do those to so that literally EVERY damn part up front is new again.

I've found some part numbers and am researching, but have what may be a stupid question... Since the above mentioned bushings are for the aluminum based subframes, did they change at all on those cars or do they still fit the steel subframes of 97-03? I've honestly never looked at the alum. version.
 


It would be nice if there were a poly option out there, but I haven't found any. I also wonder if a solid mount option would be too harsh or not, I would think that someone has surely tried it.
