Allright, I searched around and didnt really find what I was looking for.

I want a set of polyurethane sway bar bushings, and a set of polyurethane sway bar end links. I want the whole end link, not just the bushings, as my links are in rough shape.

I have seen that people like Daystar, but I have a 99 4dr 4x4 and havent seen them make anything for it yet.

If you know of where I can get Daystars or Energy Suspensions as described above, or have other relavent information please let me know


Thanks In Advance

I found my polyurethane sway bar bushings at Autozone at $14.99. I think Pep Boys have them a little cheaper at $12.99. Yea, Energy Suspensions makes them. All you have to know to shop for it is the length of your stock ones. If you are lowered, I found that you could gain a few more cornering stability if you get an inch or so smaller size ones than stock.
 












When I checked my new bushing kit from Daystar it contained 5/8" swaybar bushings. After much to and fro with the supplier and with Daystar claiming that my factory swaybars were non-OEM after markets fitted by me it was conceeded that maybe they were wrong, that my truck was a special spec. (It's not!) I will be allowedto return the junk I was sent.
I would check with John at Explorer Express as that is where I ended up having got lots of assistance from EE as to my factory specs. when I was debating with Daystar.
SO START WITH EE then ask around afterwards if they can't help you.
 






my passsenger side end link just broke on me about a week ago. went to advance auto parts and got both sides for $25 and they are the polyurethane bushings and are way better than the stock ones. Mine was nothing like the stock ones it has the long bolt, 8 washers, 4 bushings, a metal sleeve, and locking nut for the bottom.
 






Same thing happened to me. Later I realized there was a recall on the end links. heh, oh well. Had I gone to Ford, they most likely would have told me I need other stuffed fixed blah blah or else they're not responsible blah blah blah.
