Re: Sway Bar Bushing Fitment - Is This Normal?
While I fully understand the logic in some situations, mounting a sway bar w/spacers under the existing/on-hand brackets would not be a concern to me. The mounting would not be compromised & would not over-compress the bushing by simply cinching down the existing shorter brackets. Just sharing a different perspective.
Are the 'CounterParts' bushings rubber or Poly?

They are rubber. I can tell by looking at the original bushings that the clamps compressed them a lot. |

Re: Sway Bar Bushing Fitment - Is This Normal?
I found the same thing with my poly bushings. I just drew them down to where the bracket touched the frame/A-arm. Based on what lots of people in this forum have said, these sway bars need as little wiggle room as possible to really work.
