On LG's website does the bar kit come with the bushings and endlinks? I ask this because I noticed that they sell the links separately

It should. Think it's the same package other folks have. It's also pictured with bushings and endlinks. Call them before you order. They'd be happy to work with you.

I have them in stock right now.

The LG HD Quiet End links are optional but yes they do come with links and bushings.

This is a track/race swaybar so the polyurethane bushings will squeak and the endlinks will chatter. You may not like the noise after your install. I use graphite powder lube for the bushings but have to re-apply every 6 months or so but this eliminates the squeaks. As for the chatter, maybe I'm used to it but it's not noticeable that much anymore but then again I don't street drive it much. I haven't tried the upgraded "quiet" endlinks and can't speak to them.

I heard using electrical tape over the bar in between the bushing keeps the squeaks quiet.

The Dry Graphite lube works very well on any of the rod ends. The GM sway bar bushings have an insert in them to keep them quiet but you can also use the dry film lube or a quality poly lube on the inside of the sway bar bushing as well.
