Default About to Replace Shocks/Springs

I'm about to install a full tokico suspension kit (1.5inch springs/5way adj. illumina shocks) on my 5th gen. Just a quick question for those who have done this procedure on the 5th gen. Should I have any bushings or parts on hand to replace while I've got the spring/shock assembly out? Maybe a set of bushings that tend to rot and I may as well replace while the cars apart? I've only ever done suspension work on civics/crxs/integras but never the 5th gen. thx in advance for any pointers

I did this recently on my Canadian 4th gen. I bought all the parts that could be changed while I had all this appart. It turned out that all of the rubber parts looked just fine.

If I were you I would try and do it on a day you can run to the dealership to buy anything that looks bad, if they even stock them.

Or just make sure you have time to wait on a part.

Off topic: Make sure you cut the bump-stop.
