I replaced left and right side compression rod bushing when I noticed the creaking entering a driveway. One year later both compression rod ball joints went bad. Wish I just replaced the whole compression rods the first time. You wouldn't think the compression rod ball joints effect suspension/steering performance as much as they do...they set the caster, which is very important. Your car will handle terribly during turns and drift big time on the highway. You won't notice this until you get the new rods.
I just replaced the bushings on mine, as the ball joint was fine. The ball joint is also cast as part of the rod, so I am not sure how you can get the rod without the ball joint?
Anyway, I had some fitment issues with the ES bushes, but they are all ok now.

If you have access to a press to remove the factory bushing, you can do it yourself. If you want to stick with the factory type bushing, you can buy these without buying the whole rod, but you will need press to push in the new factory bushings. no press is required to fit the ES bushings.
