What is the main benefit of upgrading to polyurethane sway bar bushings?

Polyurethane bushings are more rigid than stock rubber ones. This means they resist deflection better, which helps to reduce body roll during cornering and can lead to a more responsive feel from your suspension.

Do these bushings come with new hardware?

This specific product listing is for the sway bar bushings only. You will typically reuse your original sway bar mounting hardware, or you may need to source new hardware separately if your original pieces are damaged or rusted.

How difficult is it to install these sway bar bushings?

Installation typically involves unbolting the old bushings from the sway bar and frame, then installing the new ones. It's a moderately difficult job that usually requires basic hand tools and potentially a pry bar to maneuver the sway bar. Refer to a service manual for specific instructions for your vehicle.

Product Details

If you're looking to firm up the rear end of your 1988-1994 Chevrolet Cavalier, these rear sway bar bushings from Prothane are a solid option. They're designed to replace your stock rubber bushings, which can get worn out and soft over time, leading to less precise handling. These bushings are made from polyurethane, a material known for its durability and resistance to the elements, helping to keep your sway bar working effectively for longer.

This particular set is for a 17mm sway bar and comes in black. Prothane is a well-known name in suspension components, and these bushings are a straightforward way to get a more connected feel from your car's rear suspension. They fit a range of GM vehicles from the mid-80s to the mid-90s, including models like the Chevrolet Beretta, Pontiac Sunbird, and Oldsmobile Achieva, so if you're working on one of those, they might be what you need.

Replacing these bushings is a common job when you're addressing rear suspension looseness or just want to improve the car's cornering ability. They're a small part that makes a noticeable difference in how the car feels when you turn.
