thrust arm question

Do new bmw thrust arms come with the bushings already installed? I want to install the X5 bushings so I'm hoping its just the arms.

I put new arms and X5 bushings on at the same time about 30k miles ago. Separate items.

BTW I did not notice any particular difference in the car after doing this work.
