New bushings?

I’m looking at upgrading the suspension bushings on my 90 F-150 2wd. I plan on doing the DJM 3/5 kit as well. What kit does everyone recommend to get some more stability out of the old boy? I’m not looking for a road race or track star, just a improved setup.

Thanks

You just need the beam pivot bushings and radius arm bushings as you should have ball joints up front.
When I rebuilt my truck I went with poly bushing up front with kingpins (81 F100) as they were all shot but kept the rubber bushings out back.
I would have gone poly out back also if I had to replace the rubber bushings.
I don't remember who's but I waned black as the red sticks out like a sore thumb.
