i posted in a similar question, this is what srv1 told me:

Rear:
lower control arm bushings(poly or stock rubber)
upper control arm bushings on axle(use stock rubber!)
upper control arm bushings on control arm(use stock rubber!)

when i asked him why, this was his reply:

"cause of the postion of the upper control arms, the poly's will actually make it bind and that is what you dont want. if your drag racing, then you can get away with it. for cornering, its a no no. depends how you set up your car. you can use poly's in the upper, but the car will actually handle better with the stock bushings in the upper. the lower you can go poly."

hope this helps.
