Rear sway bar replacement bushings

[Awafrican]

Wow noone "touched" this?

Sorry not trying to derail the thread...just ignore me

That's not surprising no one wants to touch small rods

Dunno, neither of $80+ brackets really impress me - bolts hang on them to just couple millimeters of aluminum..
My hardware store cut me some heavy square washers, will see how they're going to hold.

anyone have a suggestion for aftermarket rear replacement bushings only for the .125 JBR?

pricey but work beautiful. Went through two sets of the stamped steel ones until I got these.

I only need the bushings.

why were you breaking the brackets so regularly? Im lowered on KW V3 for years and Ive yet to break one.

Before I sold my speed, I had a Progress Technologies rear bar which was a 32mm tube and was excellent. the brackets that came with it were pretty beefy and no signs of breakage in 3 years i ran it. You can buy them separately here. Price point isnt bad either

If those don't hold, you could always try these - SS, a good deal thicker, and like ~$32: http://www.jamesbaroneracing.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=297

I had Progress coils on another car. They make nice stuff.

$55 for brackets and bushings. Kinda pricey. I only need the bushings.

Anyone know the diameter of the OEM rear sway bar?
