Did you buy that code reader recently? (like, within a return period lol) I have the AL439 which supports freeze-frame data as well as live graphing of stuff, VERY useful in your situation.
Yes

this link will bring you to the page that sells control arms, both upper and lower with bushings: http://www.quadratec.com/category/Je.../121/index.htm Front Upper #56015.005, Front Lower #56015.001
this link will bring you to the track bar that fits your rig. in the picture it has a bushing and TRE so i believe its good to go: http://www.quadratec.com/products/918205_03.htm #918205.03
curious about a couple things, though. what whole set do you refer to and can you clarify what you mean by "the rear spring one".

Two sites for you:
http://www.rockauto.com/ <- Best prices and parts catalog I've seen
http://www.moparpartsoverstock.com/ <- Diagrams and OE part numbers
http://www.moparpartsoverstock.com/s...category=23297 is the front suspension control arms, to get you started.
Bushings are sold each, or in packs of two
Upper control arms: 4x the same bushing (most sold in pairs)
Lower control arms: 4x the same bushing (most sold in pairs) (easier to replace entire control arms, though)
Sway bar: 2x bushings bar-to-frame (most are sold in a kit of two though), 1x end link bushing kit (eg. Mevotech MK3150)
Trackbar: Axle end is one bushing, frame end is non-serviceable.
Steering: Recommend upgrading to V8 ZJ tie rod - 1x XJ drag link, 1x V8 ZJ tie rod, 2x TREs, 2x TRE adjusting sleeves
Doing a full front-end service is laudable though the control arm bushings are a colossal pain in the ***. Might want to verify where the noise is from first.

My mistake, track bar was replaced by PO. It has the solid one in it. Rock Auto "Rocks". Do a lot with them.

I'm going to be doing my first coolant flush soon, and I have a question about it. When I'm refilling the system with antifreeze should I add a higher ratio of antifreeze to compensate for the water in the block that doesn't get drained out, or do most people just ignore it? I know there's a block drain but I don't really want to mess with it seeing as a lot of other people don't.
