At 65k my MY99 UK wagon is bouncy, so I'm having KYB dampers fitted at PowerStation on Saturday
Whilst I'm having that done, which suspension bushes are worth changing? (I need to replace with standard parts only).
I've bought front ARB bushes as I've heard these go first and are quick to change, but are any others worth doing at the same time, eg the 4 front wishbone bushes?
Your advice much appreciated

Get them to check out the other bushes and report to you - the 4 wishbone bushes would be favourite to be soggy at that mileage. Along with the drop link bushes if not changed with the anti roll bar mounting bushes.
Powerflex or similar polyurethane bushes would be better, harder, longer lasting and not much more noise / rumble if any.
