ve noticed most of my suspension bushings are noticeably worn and Ive been experiencing various squeaks for some time, mostly coming from the rear. Thus, Ive tried to research various complete bushing kits. I'd appreciate any suggestions or comments on any full kits, including your experiences with their ease of installation.

But BE VERY CAREFUL with those companies! You have been warned!

Is NAPA your crisp auto parts supplier? Go to there and buy a haul of rubber bushings.
You can put poly bushings in the inner and outer links of the H arms, but the trailing arm bushes need to stay as rubber as they move on more than one axis.
Remember that poly bushings need greasing often, and unless you feel like taking the suspension apart each time, you need to add zerg fittings (grease nipples) to the bushings to prevent creaking and general binding issues.
Those companies that V mentioned have burned plenty of customers and are unapologetic about it.
I'd go rubber
