Default polyurethane sway bar end link(s) bushing

Hi All
I have noticed that some folks had already replaced the OEM sway bar bushings (front/rear) with the Polyurethane bushing. Not much have written about or even DIY regarding the sway bar end links bushing. I know energy suspension have components called "universal" (I hope it is Universal)
Would it make more sense to replace those sway bar end links bushing as well. Is it directly connected to the sway bar ends? I am all ears. BTW, I am either mechanically or car inclined.
My thought is on causes and effects, Is there any additional force or load will be exerting onto those little sway bar end links bushing? If the sway bars bushing had already stiffen up.

"Sway bar end links bushing"? They don't exist on the 2GS....maybe thats why there's no writeup or DIY on it...LOL!!
