anything stiffer than the stock upper control arms and stock rubber bushings will only cause worse handling and increased bind in the rear suspension.

MM sells replacement stock upper control arms and stock rubber bushings, they are the best you can swap in for a street car or anything you want to go around corners with.

That's what they suggested to me. The Ford HD uppers with rubber bushing. When I purchased mine they told me that Ford is going to discontinue production some time this year.
