Front Sway Bar Bushings
Just installed new shocks and struts (Monroe Sensatrac) and noticed that my front sway bar bushings are worn and are beginning to squeak something horrible. Can anyone please let me know what the part number for these bushings are? In regards to installation, does the entire sway bar need to be removed in order for these bushings to be installed? I've included a picture of a sway bar (not my rig) with new bushings (in red). Thanks for the help.

To answer my own questions, I found a great write-up on Yotatech for front sway bar/end link bushing replacements:

my friend at brake check told me monroe synsatracs normally last 50,000 miles and they need to be replaced. He recommends oem or KYB only.

how much did you pay for those shocks? Monroe is the Saturn of shocks, KYB are they Toyota and bilsteins are the Ferrari.

I actually paid under $300 at Sears for the MONROE shocks and struts, plus they had free installation (couldn't beat the price). I don't do that much off-roading and I am quite please with the ride quality. I like your quote: "Monroes are the Saturns of shocks"...ha ha ha!

410TOY, I've been meaning to ask you: where did you purchase your PIAA HID corner lights? Thanks!
