Looking for clarification of Torque Stuts

Hi all,

I need to replace both front torque struts becuase of torn boots and loose ball joints. I would like to replace the stuts with the version that has the new design of the large bushing (non-hydromount) already installed.

Parts.com lists a right torque strut as #2113304411 but does not say if the large bushing is installed. EPC net calls this same part number out as "without bearing". I had read in an earlier post by Konigstiger that this same part number should include the new bushing design already installed.

So basically, what does "without bearing" mean and does this refer to the large bushing? What is the correct torque strut part number that has the new bushing design already installed?

Thanks in advance.
