I went to autozone a splurged the $7.99 for addco general purpose urethane sway bar endlink bushings. You get 8 of them ,but the max only needs 4. I jacked the car up and ended up having to cut about 1/4" off each bushing for them to fit.

Anyway, I can feel a little more quickness in the roll stiffness. Plus, my old rubber ones were all rotted anyway.

So, if you have eight bucks burnin a hole in your pocket and time to kill...go for it.

Not hard to install at all. Take off both front wheels (you need to do both at the same time, if you do one side of the bar at a time you'll preload the bar...and thats bad). You will see where the sway bar attatches to the lower control arm just inboard of the hub carrier. Remove the nuts (14mm) on both sides and rotate the bar up off the end link. Swap the bushings and reverse.

If you are looking for bushing go to suspension.com They have both the end-links and sway bar bushing that are designed for our cars. They also have great prices I got both end-links and swaybar bushing for about 20 bucks.
