    No one offers poly bushings. But I've been told that if you sent them (energy, prothane ect.) the stock bushings they can match up their generic poly bushings so you can do it that way. I've heard of a few members using this part and that part to do it, but no one has come out and side, "yeah get these part numbers" If you want poly sway bar bushing and end links thier is a company you can send factory bushings/brackest and the end links to and they will copy them in poly. But it's expensive, I think it would be $80 for the set, each axle. The company is sannerprefab.

    I just emailed Energy Suspension and asked them about our cars. I'm putting LXi swaybars on my LX (got them from OldSchoolSwap) and I don't wanna pay the hi $ from the dealer for the new bushings. I'd pay a higher price for poly. Sounds like Jim has already done the research on this, though. Anyone know a cheap place to get OEM bushings?

    hey guys I have had suspension techniques sways on my car for amost 7 years now so the bushing are getting worn. I replaced the bushings with a set I got from the local speed shop. I believe there are from energy suspension. The part number is

    98105R it's a set of 8 bushings and 8 washers. So you'll need two sets actually 1 1/2 lol. Just make sure that the bolt is still in good shape. BTW the last washer may stick so get the extra rubber off and pull it off. Good luck have fun. If you hae any questions just post and I'll check back.

    PS they were only $10 a set. You'll use the whole set for the front and half for the back.

    Huh, the suspension techniques sway bars are larger in diameter than stock swaybars, bushings ment for them can't be exspected to work on smaller bars.

    A rep from Energy Suspension emailed me back. They don't carry them. I may call and see if I can mail them the old stock bushings, like Jim said, and see if they can match them up.

    The bushings I mentioned are the end link bushing not the ones that are connected to the body.

    maybe i am wrong but I could've sworn justin had talked to someone about making aftermarket bushings for our cars.. I don't know if it's a "group buy in" before they will make them or not, I will have to talk to justin about it..
    I'm just like any other member on this board.......
