Sway bar and Leaf Spring Bushings

[bigred88]

So I've been getting a noise out of the front suspension whenever I hit a pothole, so I get under and start looking around, and one of my sway bar bushings has completely squeezed out. I poke around some more, and all my leaf spring bushings could use replacing too.

So here's my question- other than switching to poly bushings, does the brand really matter when it comes to bushings? Are there any to stay away from, any to go with, or does it not matter?

Thanks in advance.

Daystar and energy seem to be the same to me. I got some from skyjacker once and they didnt seem to be as firm.
