Sway bar bushings?

[oliver88]

does anyone have a recommendation/source for sway bar bushings for a 3000? I noticed they are a tad rotten!

Moss Motors should do just fine. www.mossmotors.com

Don't use poly bushings anywhere unless you like creaking noises. After using poly bushing for 6 months, I switched to the bushings from Moss.

Poly bushings are the only way to go. You do however need to use the correct lubricate on them before installation. I successfully installed them 10 years ago. Never a squeak.

So poly bushings don't flex like the rubber ones?

I have poly bushings for the links because they compress less, but not the bar-to-frame bushings.

No, polyurethane bushings do not flex or break-down like rubber ones. You must use the right lube on them to eliminate any creaking or squeaking though.

I would like to get the original style rubber if possible...i di not see that Moss carries them? Any other source?

Sure they do. Part number 021-769 for the sway bar link ends or 021-767 for the frame mount.
