When the vertical link is changed, the bearing is re-used. But it's pretty simple to change if it's not stuck.. It's only attached with four bolts to the vertical link.

It's not unlikely that the bearing is worn now for a 1999 model.
Also the Stabilization bar and it's links are likely to make some noise on rough roads.
