Rear Swaybar Bushing Questions

Hey guys,

I think I'm going to order some replacement polyurethane replacement bushings for my rear swaybar, but for the life of me, I can't find any part #'s for them anywhere. Did most of y'all get them from Energy Suspension? If so, do you have the part #'s for them? I did a search at YotaTech and 4x4wire, and just can't seem to find them anywhere. Any info you've got would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a ton guys-

CTB

P.S. - Should I be looking for greasable ones, or will regular polyurethane be fine?

Edit:
P.S.S. - I am also looking for part #'s/info on the rear swaybar end-link bushings as well. Thanks again-

There are some great bushing avail through Energy Suspension. I recently installed greasable sway bar bushing/brackets front/rear and endlinks from this company. You can look at their web site Energy Suspension (949 361-3935).

I ordered the items from Summit Racing (800 230-3030).

9-5161-G, 1" greasable sway bar bushings, black, for factory front bar

9-5156-G, 3/4" greasable sway bar bushings, black, for factory rear bar

Best of Luck
Andrew

I JUST ordered exactly what Andrew gave you. The only thing that I can add to this is that they also come in Red:

Front:

Rear:

And, I hit up Lowe's with the list of parts that ALBPM gives in the 5th post of this thread:

I just bought an ES endlink bushing kit from pepboys for about 7 bucks, drilled out the washers and installed them. they fit perfectly. can't tell you the part number but they only had one size when I went there.

how difficult is it to change out the bushings on your own?

as simple as it looks, or are there any hidden gotchas?

sorry to hijack your thread!

no, unscrew nut, remove old endlink washers and bushings, install new ES washers and bushings. DO THE swaybar bushings first and then the endlinks. best to completely remove the whole thing then reassemble starting with the swaybar bushings.
