Do the MX3 Rear suspension Arms and Lateral Links fit the GTX?

I would like to go back with Polyurethane bushings.
I am in the process of replacing most of the rear suspension bushings with Polyurethane meaning:
1) Sway bar bushings including end links
2) All four (4) lateral links - right and left
3) Trailing arms - right and left
Fortunately Whiteline make a kit that will work on our GTX cars, the kit is W61757 and two (2) kits are required. You will have to trim the center sleeves to fit with either a Sawzall or Angle Grinder - but not a biggie. These kits are currently on sale for only $18.46 on www.whitelinesuspensionparts.com, typically they retail for around $125. Its worth buying two (2) sets while at this reduced cost.
Failing that or if you have a damaged rear Lateral link, the one out of a 1991-1994 MX3 GS will work with the GTX, the front lateral link is about 1/2" too long and also does not have the provision for the rear sway bar end link. These arms are $95 each from Mazda and still available (fortunately).
I'll post some more pics when I receive the sway bar bushings as I had to do some research but I believe the bushings from a 2001-2007 Corolla will work (front sway bar).
Today's project will be to remove the old bushings from the GTX arms and get them ready for powder coating.
