Poly Anti-roll bar

[aeathb]

Ok, I have read many of the very good and informative DIY replacement Bushings articles for the sway bar, but I'm still confused on which part I would be replacing!! The pictures are of the back axle only. Is it #1,2,or 3 I would be replacing? I'm guessing its only #3, but what would #1 and 2 be for? I apologize in advance for my lack in car knowledge. Thanks!!

They probably mean the ones you labeled as #2. You can't really replace #3 and there is no point in replacing #1.

You should look into replacing the end links as a whole. See here:

Look at that and find the pictures of where each set of bushings is located. As mentioned above, you would be replacing #1 - rear sway bar bushings and #2 - end link bushings. You would also replace the front sway bar bushings, but those aren't what you have labeled in #3.
