Sway Bar Links

I am at 106500 miles or so, and doing the rear brakes for the first time as far as I know. I bought it used. Since I will have the rear raised and the wheels off I thought I might do something about the sway arm link bushings. I know the bushings in front are shot.

Now, I live in the DFW area and we don't deal with alot of snow and salt and stuff. Rust under my truck is not an issue, in fact the majority of frame paint is still there. Other than getting a grease zerk is there any reason I shouldn't just replace the bushings and bolts? The links are in good stable shape.

Any brand I should look for, or will pretty much anything work?

Thanks,
Jeffrey

I used NAPA's on mine (they are made by some other reputable company and rebranded). I just wanted to make sure it had a grease fitting and it was noticeably larger than the factory. I did have one go out pretty quickly, but it was because I had some serious front end issues. NAPA handed me a new one over the counter and said bring back the other one when it was convenient. Good luck, Mike.
