I bought a pair of rear arms years ago. I also cleaned the old grease out of the bushes then repacked them with grease and fitted new seals.
I've also got a set of rear arm poly bushes which have never been fitted 50 quid inc postage.

That is for the spherical bearings, fitting bushes would be a downgrade.

Stick to the proper spherical items, Cosworth handles bad enough already without adding poly bushes to the rear arms
