Polyurethane sway bar bushings

[Pharmer]

My advice is to avoid these. I had Energy suspension front sway bar bushings on for about 20K miles. They don't look worn but they expand so that the sway bar freely moves and clunks like crazy. Installed Ford parts tonight and no more clunk.

Also installed 4 Monroe reflex shocks. I used F-350 part number for front shocks, for extra height of U-codes. Edelbrock is shipping two new fronts for ones I wore out. Will save these for when I find that used PSD Ex. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/phoney.gif[/img]

Interesting. I was actually going to go with the E.S. bushings until I read this. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/phoney.gif[/img] Thanks for posting.

I haven't had anything but good results in the first 5k miles with out bushings. Hopefully I won't have the same problem because all of the suspension bushings have been replaced on our truck.

I've had some bad luck in trying to find the correct bushings for these beasts. Doesen't help ford tried to use 3 different sway bars between 99/01 all needing different bushings and endlinks, everybody stocks the 99 version, and marks it for use 99-04, not even close to the right ones YUK [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/vomit.gif[/img]! I just got some polly bushings for the track bar. but have yet to find the right pollys for the swaybar. After reading this kinda glad I didn't!
