Superpro bushings and front suspension

The bushings in my front control arms are pretty old, I've been looking to have them replaced. For the rear bushings in particular, upgrading to poly seems like a reasonable thought. I came across a set (actually, two) from SuperPro: SPF0767K and SPF1924K. Both come with rear *and front* lower control arm bushings. I checked the instructions on the manufacturer's webpage -- installing the front ones in particular does not appear to be a picnic. Also, one set comes with 35mm OD front bushing, while the other one is 31mm. I measured a stock bushing as 34mm OD. I'm supposing that the 35mm set is the one I want. I'm wondering if anyone has experience with installing and using Superpro stuff. Not looking for the best of performance here, in fact I would just go OEM if not for the cost
($80/bushing for the rear ones), but some added stiffness in the front would be nice. Also looking to replace front struts (way overdue) and strut mounts. For the mounts in particular wondering if there are any decent options out there, and trying to stay away from questionable quality parts (Anchor, DEA, Westar...) Would appreciate any suggestions.
