Hi guys,

I just bought a set of GT take-off front and rear sway bars for my V6 convertible. It's the base model so I also bought the OEM bolts for the rear. My car is a daily driver and I really don't do any racing. I've heard people say to use Prothane bushings. I did some research it seems like these will make the suspension ride a little harder and also be more prone to squeaking. I don't mind spending the money if I can see a difference with a daily driver. Do you think it's worth it? Will I hear a lot more squeaking?

Also, for the guys that have these bushings where did you buy them? I can't find anyplace that sells both the front (34mm) and rear (20mm). Most places just sell the front.

Thanks,
Mark

Try Moss Muscle. I know they have a pretty good assortment of bushing selections

I believe I got them from moss. I think that they are def worth the money. you're already upgrading why only do it half assed

+1 especially since they're not that expensive

I checked moss but they only had them for the v6 and I bought GT sway bars.

Yes Polyurethane will squeak.

As for stiffness, you want a stiffer sway bar mount busings. It keeps the car level. We're not talking shocks where where too stiff for DD is uncomfortable.

Anyone any try wrapping the part of the bar with the bushings with Teflon tape? I came across this article from mustang monthly talking about it.

I've been thinking about trying the front bar bushings to see if it eliminates my p/s clunk.
