    ok here is the number for the sway bar bushings. i know it says Shift Bushing but it is bushings for sway bar, i think NOPI did typo.
    www.nopi.com part number 474+3909
    if you still skeptic about it just call them and ask Customer Service 1-800-277-NOPI Ext 260, 262
    i am not sure why you would want to buy a new sway bar from SUSPENSION TECHNIQUE. LXI model comes with a nice think sway bar. i think it is a waist of money.
    well this is all i have.

    Buy the bushings online if you can. The suspension techniques bar is only 1/16" bigger than your LX-i bar, You might want to save your money and just stick with bar you have and get some polyurethane bushings.

    LX-i bar size: 7/8" or 14/16" or 22 mm

    S/T bar: 15/16"

    I thinking they may have meant the end link bushings cuz the size of the mount bushings for your lx-i is 22 mm. With the endlinks the size between the two bars wouldn't matter.

    well this is all i have.

    Did you actually order those and get the right part? I just got my order today and it WAS the shift bushing. So disappointed. I guess its not a typo. They just are showing the wrong pic. So now I have to send it back. What a waste of time!!!!
    Now it makes me wonder if they do make that part or not and what part number it would be.

    I'm out.

    This is a suspension topic and you know it, illregardless of what the product is truely ment for originally, we are discussing the need for sway bar bushings. Clearly a suspension topic. If I had the power to more this, it would have been moved before even the first reply.

    Ya know your right. I am wrong. He thinking out loud questioning why nopi listed those parts under suspension. I apologize, sincerly here and now. I will also be sending him a pm.

    I thought he was making a case for the topic to not be in the suspension section. OPPS!
