It really depends on what you are doing with the car. Our two must popular LCAs are the non-adjustable with poly-urethane bushings (TCA001) and the adjustable with the poly-urethane bushings (MTCA002). Here are a couple pictures.

Well the car with eventually have a 9" rear but for now it's the stock 10bolt but the car will only be used for car shows, cruising around on nice days and occasionally the strip. I would also like to put lowering springs on it to drop it a little.

Thanks for the UMI mentions above, guys.
General cruising suits poly bushings well. When properly lubricated they're nice and quiet and provide adequate comfort.
Factory rear housings work great with non-adjustables. The non's require less maintenance as well. Aftermarket housings can benefit from adjustables in case the tolerances are out.
Lowering doesn't require any trailing arm changes per se but of course it's nice to have the improved bushings/Roto's/rod ends and more strength.

I bought a set from Founder perf. I haven"t drove thousands of miles on them, but they don"t squeak r anything like that. Completely stopped wheel hop and I swear the car actually rides a little better. Maybe it just tightened up the rear of the car some. They are of the non-adj flavor. poly bushings on both ends. Super easy to install. I used synthetic grease in them. I think UMI also offers a rubber bushing option. Or maybe its BMR. cant remember for sure.

All of the the sponsers here have a great product and I am running Spohn LCA's with spherical rod ends in a primarily track car with very little street use. FYI, I would have not chosen these in a street car ..... they are very noisy and the fact I am running a spool probably attributes to the noise on slow speed turns, but they are also noisy on mildly rough roads. For bind-free performance though, they are the ones to have.

As far as I know we are the only company to offer a rubber bushing option for the rear lower control arms. The rubber bushings are for the people looking for better performance but unwilling to sacrifice any added NVH (noise,vibration, or harshness). Here are a couple picture of our rear lower control arms with the rubber bushing option.
