Sway Bar Bushings

jlach993 · Feb 21, 2019

So i know this topic was touched on back in 2017 or so after doing a search on the forum, but since many of us now have LR4's with well over 100k miles by now i figure ill ask again. I need to replace my front sway bar bushings. Should i go with the oem bushings, orange polybush or these purple polybushes that i found on powerflexusa's website?

One day I'll do these. Superpro are amazing bushings all around, especially in the performance car realm. From a FB forum, other people are running them and it has a better feel than stock, but not so much that they feel every bump on the road.

I put in the purple Powerflex ones front and rear a couple thousand miles ago.

So far I have had no issues with them.

If the OEM ones lasted 100k miles, is there a reason to switch to something else?

In my case, not really. Just trying something different.

My stock ones at 86K miles were completely toasted though. Torn completely through the rubber, IIRC.

One good reason to switch...polybush does not need to be pressed in and out. Not sure I’ll ever need to change my polys again but it’s good to know I can...and knowing is half the battle
