My sway bar link bushings are shot. I know that I can get new links, but it seems to be wasteful and expensive to replace the whole link when it is just the bushings that are gone. Anyone know where to get a set of polyurethane bushings to replace the bad rubber ones? While I am at it I would like to replace the sway bar bushings as well. Anyone know where I can get some polyurethane bushings that have zert fittings too? I have found some of both of these online, but am not certain the ones I found will fit the 03 Renny.

jba may have the bushings separate from the swaybar links (which they carry as well)

zerk fittings on the sway.. don't think anyone carries them, but it's a fairly easy and quick modification that you can do yourself

Found a place online that has the polyurethane sway bar bushings as well as the polyurethane link bushings. :pepper: They do not have the brackets that go over the sway bar bushings with zerk fittings, but polyurethane is certainly better than rubber and buying bushings instead of paying $100 or more for a new set of links is great.

Just in case anyone else would like to get them as well, you can find them at:

Thanks, ATXKJ, I think I might try installing the zerks myself

the zerks shouldn't be too big of a deal, drill a hole, tap it, install zerk, good to go :)
