Rear Axle Bushings and Oversteer

My car is knocking at the rear and I'm considering upgrading the OEM axle bushings to Powerflex item (ease of fitment, longevity and lack of needing to tension before tightening up are the main draws over going OEM again).

I love the cars tendency to liftoff oversteer and imagine Ford engineers designed the OEM rubber bushings to influence this behaviour in some way (or maybe not).

Can anyone who's fond of getting a little sideways in their FiST shed any let on whether the cars behaviour in this regard was altered when switching to polyurethane rear axle bushings? I'd really like to hear some feedback before I pull the trigger and order them.
