lower control arm shaft upgrades

Guys, I have my suspension apart swapping spindles. I am going to purchase some tubular upper a-arms to get some more caster. I cant afford the lower ones and am not sure I can or will gain much with them?
My question is there an upgrade for the control shaft on the lower? I have found some polyurethane parts but they are marked for 1973 up I assume these are different but not sure what all is?
When I grab the lower a-arm (still mounted) I can feel some movement front to rear at these connections not much but some. I rebuilt these before but think I may need to get new shafts. Any thoughts on this, is there something better I can do on a budget?
Thanks
Dave
