also do the poly sides have a grease fitting ?

Yes, the poly/spherical LCA's adjust differently but just as well. Yes, they have a grease fitting on the poly side, as does the panhard bar.

Spherical bearings are the way to go, but the noise is unbearable to drive with. I have the herb adams LCA, but only use them when I go to the track. I use the stock arms with poly bushings for everyday driving.

There's also the wear factor. Rod ends don't last as long as bushings do. For a daily driven street car the ploy/rod end combo is a better way to go.
