I was looking to order ES bushings for front sway bar. Mine are bad. I found the ES homepage but it doesn't have any ordering page. So I guess its just an information page. Who carries these? This is the site I found. Energy Suspension

Thanks guys,
I just found this site also. Are there four bushings in this kit? On the site it says pair. The bushing that is bad on my max is the lower one. The one that is visibly bad is the one on the little rod that connects the sway bar to lower control arm. It doesn't look exactly like a bushing. Kinda just a rubber washer type thing. Does this come in the kit?

You might as well just replace all of them when you're in there.
You'll need one 7-5118, these are the bushings that mount the swaybar to the chassis. The endlink bushings, the ones you describe as looking like a rubber washer, are part number 9-8106.
9-8106 includes 8 of the required bushings, but you only need 4, so do whatever you want to with the other 4. Just make sure you put everything back together with the correct torque settings, or you won't get the bushings compressed properly and they'll probably vibrate loose.

Well I just called up xatracing and ordered the 7-5118 kit after talking with them. Adam said that kits comes with everything needed to do the swaybar. He said it includes the endlink bushing. Lets hope he is right. I don't want to wait three weeks and end up with only the frame bushings. If only those are in the kit i will just get the endlink bushings from nissan. Infact, I'm heading over there right now to fix this. I can't stand this steering knocking.
Okay well I figured that it was the endlink connecting the swaybar and lower control are causing the problem. Well I bought one from nissan for $15 but haven't installed it yet. Now that I look at it more closely it appears the endlink is okay. Now what? I have seen a diagram on hear of all the tourque specs for the suspension. I would love it if someone would post that. I will do some looking though. Upon inspection of the stock swaybar bushing it looks pretty beat up. Could this bushing cause the suspension to knock over everylittle bump. Whatever is causing this makes it feel like the whole frame is bent. My trunk tensioner even bangs together now.
