Fot those with the Addco Rear Anti-Sway Bar
Are the urethane bushings always red? I recently purchased one through a GD and have had some trouble with the bushings. The first set was a red firm plastic like material but they sent the wrong sizes. After making arrangements with the vendor to have replacements sent, I received black rubbery like brushings that smelled like rubber. Am I right in assuming that the black brushings are not the optional urethane bushings? I don’t know anything about urethane.
Thanks

Instead of waiting, you could just go down the the local autostore and dig for the right ones. I know you "SHOULDN'T" have to pay for the correct stuff but it's not that expensive and you could probably have the bar on weeks faster. Prinicple vs reality I guess.

now get a set of Matt's upgraded rsb links..
matt will have them shipped to u in NO TIME
-once that sway bar goes on.. and u start wip'in it around turns at 120, thoes link will last maybe a month.. get thoes link before its to late,and u have to sit around ur house and look at the wall all day long, cuz ur rsb is hanging on with zip ties and bubble gum
- I also recived wrong parts with my addco kit... the bolts were very wrong. they didnt even look close.. i baught the right ones at a local hardware store..

The bushings I received with my addco were black also. After a few weeks they started squeeking pretty good, so I only assumed they were urethane. I have since quieted them down, but would like to know if they are the correct (urethane) ones. Anyone else receive black bushings? Or are all ES bushings red?

ES also has their graphite impregnated bushings which are dark grey/black in color.. but they're going to be hard just like the red ones. if theyr'e soft rubber, then they sent you the wrong stuff.

It's hit and miss sometimes with Addco. Apparently there are supposed to be two types of sway bar kits they can send you. One with rubber bushings all around, and another with urethane ones.
When I got mine I got a wierd "hybrid" set with rubber endlink bushings and urethane bar bushings. I decided not to persue the matter...
