Here is a list of all the suspension bushings that I figured I would need if I wanted to replace everything. Apart from the rubber control arm bushings, I plan to replace all these in the next year or so to get rid of some mild clunking and rear end play.

Excluding the rubber control arm bushings, a complete replacement set is $900 or so. (I guess you could also throw in front and rear anti-roll bushings too, which would be about $40 for a set.)

Many people buy aftermarket trailing arms rather than replace the bushings.

Rear suspension
===============

Differential bushings: 1 per side - ~$50 each for Mazdaspeed ones; Total (2): ~$100.

Trailing arm bushing: 1 per side - ~$50 each for Mazdaspeed ones; Total (2): ~$100.

Toe control bushings: 2 per side (~$50 each, best to replace with aftermarket toe links for ~$250); Total (1): $250.

3 pillow ***** per side (2 at outer end of LCA, 1 at outer end of UCA) - ~$50 each; Total (6): ~$300.

4 rubber bushings per side (2 at inner end of UCA, one in middle; one at inner end of LCA) - ~$50 each; Total (8): ~$400

1 rubber shock mount per side - ~$40 each; Total (2): ~$80.

1 rubber spring mat per side - ~$10 each; Total (2): ~$20

Total rear end bushing replacement: ~$1200

Front suspension
================

4 rubber bushings per side (two inner for each CA) - ~$50 each; Total (8): ~$400.

1 rubber shock mount per side - ~$40 each; Total (2): ~$80.

1 rubber spring mat per side - ~$10 each. Total (2): ~$20

Total front end bushing replacement: ~$500
