Need new sway bar bushings, where to buy?

I went to the dealer and they can only sell the entire bar for $280. I just need to polyurethane bushings, will use stuck rubber if I have to.

There’re "2" types of Sway bar rubber bushings,

1) 2 pieces 23mm #: "203 323 25 85", mounted with bracket

2) 4 pieces #: "203 327 00 90", mounted without bracket

Which bushings you need to replaced....??

Why that dealer doesn’t sell those rubbers individually.....!!?

ZAYED,,

Just bought two 26 mm polyurethane bushings to use on my C55's new H&R front sway bar at: http://www.googleadservices.com/page...nsionParts.com

they were $18.50 shipped with "universal" brackets. Since these are universal bushings, I hope they fit the OE brackets without the need for too much modification.

N/A
Were you having any steering symptoms or issues?

Please post a picture of your worn sway bar bushings prior to removal off sway bar and after removal. Would be interesting to see what failed ones look like.

No I am just upgrading to thicker sway bars front and rear to match my other modifications. My current front sway has a worn bushing that makes a popping sound at low speed when cutting the wheel really far to the left or right while parking. Otherwise, all is fine. I'll see if I can get a picuture of the worn OE bushing. The bushings on the H&R bar are worn so I might as well replace them before installing the bar.

Waveykat, you can find pictures of the poly bushings at the web site I posted previously. I may have to order from evosport, not thinking clearly, apparently.

I thought our cars had a 22mm sway bar from the factory. The front links that mount to the frame are shot and the dealer only lists the entire bar.
