Sway bar question

[ccapehartusarmyINF.(ret)]

when i get the money im going to replace my sway bars but untill then i was considering replacing the sway bar bushings with some better ones but i was wondering how much of that body roll will just new sway bar bushings cut out

unless your bushings are worn out, the difference would be negligible, unless you were upgrading to a polyurethane or similar replacement.

I just ordered some new ES bushings and sway bar links from amazon this morning. If it helps great if it does nothing oh well it's less then $40. Later on I'll upgrade sway bars but till then this is fine.

will you post if you think their is a difference.

Well after putting a few miles on them maybe a slight better handling that I've noticed. For $40 I'm not disappointed in what I got. Like I said later on down the road I'll upgrade sway bars for now I'm very happy how it handles on a 3/6 drop.

Would it really make a difference?

I think the only time you would ever notice a difference between stock and poly sway bar bushings is during quick steering transitions. That first instant when the sway bar starts to flex is when the rubber bushing will squish/compress but a poly bushing won't, at least not nearly as much.
