Polyurethene Bushings
I know that i have seen a few people, like Richie, upgraded control arm bushings and other suspension bushing so I would like to know what part numbers to use to upgrade.

Those are the ones I have. I have heard they fit the stamped steel arms also but don't know for sure.
Also used these for the endlinks. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ENS-9-8105R/

You can also check the Energy Suspension catalog - I go to www.energysuspension.com and work from there. I usually order from www.energysuspensionparts.com - which isn't directly related to ES.
Do be aware that it may list part Z for a Grand Am and not an Alero sometimes. Or, for most suspension parts, it may list a 1998-1999 Cutlass or a 1997-2004 Malibu. Or not.

No because the endlinks on the rear are different. I have a extra set of rear endlinks that I need to measure and try to match up with poly bushing though. When I find that out I will let you know.

there are no ploys for the rear end links, you would have to make custom 2 piece brackets for the rear end links, i started working on a design but never finished.
