Strongly suggest adding grease fittings to the bushing clamps while everything is apart...
you will need to periodically re-grease the bushings and the fittings will make it take minutes versus what I had to do last time.
Lift rear, drop exhaust, drop heat shield, remove bushing clamps, re-grease, reassemble.

There was a post for this that I'd need to find again but...
after drilling/tapping the clamp and threading in the grease fitting, you'd also need to drill hole through the bushing and then dremel a grove on the inside surface of the bushing for the dispersal of the grease injected through the fitting. Then you'd be able to inject a thin film of grease between the swar bar and the bushing as needed.
