Poly replacement bushings for Koni's

Is it a waste to replace the stock rubber bushing's with poly if they are available. And if they are available does anyone know where to get them.

no, the Koni needs some bushing give or else it will cause side-loading on the shaft as the suspension goes up and down, which causes accelerated wear

for the same reason you don't want to overtighten the OE bushings on the top shock mounts
