Rear control arm bushings

I got my polyurethane kit made by engery suspension... I was wondering about the end link sets that came with it. I noticed that the intructions in there only told how to do the end links connecting to the sway bar. So when I was putting the rear assembly back on I noticed that at the end of the rear control arm there is this end link that connects control arm to the subframe. Do you know if I am supposed to replace those buthings to or not?

links which looks like swaybar endlinks but are beefier? located closer to diff?

those does not have bushings in them, they have bearings, not replaceable by stuff from ES

i think there are new boots for them in Energy Suspension master bushing set
