I second the advice to look at rear suspension (especially if you already have done the rear-most front subframe bushings).
Don't worry about the bushings for the rear subframe to the chassis - those are much larger diameter - sized the way the front subframe bushings should have been.
Do check the rear trailing arm main bushings - or have your mechanic do it. How long they last depends on location and use, but when they go, the suspension doesn't work well. Also check the outer cross stay bushings ('rose' bushings). They also wear out and can make handling sloppy. Search "Rose Bushing" and similar on the board. Also check out fix-my-SAAB to see the what, how, why for suspension bushings.
Good luck, and let us know how it turns out.
