endlinks need to be replaced with sway bushings?

About 5 years ago, my 4th gen had a broken sway bar end link. Obviously i replaced it and being an enthusiast like we all are here, i opted to do the sway bar bushings as well. I went with energy suspension bushings for the sway and endlinks with a pair of OEM endlinks.

Now i got a squeak from them. Visually looking the sway bar bushing are SHOT SHOT SHOT and went down the river and back up again bad. But now my thoughts are do I do just get new bushings or get bushings and new endlinks too. The car is not just a beater since its at 133k, still a baby but my brother drives it and doesn't like to pour money into a car. He is very happy bushing are cheap.

Could i just unbolt the bushing and slip in the new ones ? I know its easier with the endlink off but looking at it, it might not come off nicely ( midwest winters)
