ES swaybar/misc part numbers.

Alright, I have gotten my F41 sway bars in finally. Already have ES endlinks.

Needing the bar to frame bushings for them, I turned to summit/ES.

Found front one
ENS-3-5131, 34mm Greasable, No Problem

21mm rear bar, having problems. Whats the difference between ens-9-5157r, and ens-9-5158r???


While im at it, I have already done the ES trans mount, but wondered about the lower "biskit" ones, found part # on ES site being 3-1109, but I cant find this is summits listing???


Also while Im at it, tourqe arm. How do I know if I have the flange in, or flange out style, I'm kinda lost on that one. Its a 91 RS v6.

Thanks for the help!!!

On the torque arm, it was made in two different styles. The cross section of the arm looks like a W or C in shape. The difference between the two styles is whether the lips (or opening) of the cross section faces toward or away from the driveshaft.

Summit may stock, and can always get any ES part.

The http://www.energysuspension.com website tells you how to identify which torque arm bushing you need; either the lips face the driveshaft, or face away from it- they have pictures up. Ah, what the hell, why not.... here's the link: http://www.energysuspension.com/cam2.html

3-1109 is on their website; you just forgot the bushing's color code! So ENS-3-1109G (Graphite impregnated black) or ENS-3-1109R (red) or whatever, but the site says they're backordered... Summit's website doesn't have a provision for "Special Order", so you need to give 'em a call.

See this old message of mine for part numbers for the bushings... https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...threadid=58782 That front bushing you have is correct but it's not greaseable. You're just getting the center bushing, no outer bracket- our brackets use offset bolts. If you search this forum for "greasable", you'll find out how some people made their bushings greaseable.

Re: ES swaybar/misc part numbers.

Dear guys, I buyed the whole E/S Master Bushings Kit (3.18131R), and on the Transmission Mounts came that Little Biskit with part number 3.1109 or Secondary Crossmember Mounts.

So.. Where in the heck is the X member? Where in the heck goes this kit, i really don´t understand the Installation Instructions...

Maybe a pic?

Thanks for the help!!

Carlos

Re: ES swaybar/misc part numbers.

the secondary crossmember is not installed on most cars, usually the v6 cars have them. Its just a different type of crossmember for the trans, there is another, more rare and PITA fluid filled mount too. The secondary setup has a crossmember, then another smaller crossmember bolted on top of it with those small flat round bushings in between, then the trans mount on that.

you probably dont need those particular parts, just toss them.

Re: ES swaybar/misc part numbers.

For the sake of general info, here's a pic of the secondary cross member along with info about what cars had or may have been equipped with it:
