Polyurethane 1LE Sway Bar Bushings

Does anyone make a 36mm polyurethane sway bar bushing? The largest I've seen is 34mm

You can get 1LE sway bar bushings for 36mm. They are not poly, but a high durometer rubber.

The poly manufacturers do not make a 36mm bushing. You need to buy a 34mm bushing and hone the inside out to 36mm.

Hone it out? That sounds a lot like work. I could probably live with rubber.

I used a 35MM from energy suspension. Its the biggest one and it JUST fits its not made for the car so you have to use the fittings that come with the kit.

The only one who makes a 36 in poly is Guldstrand. I bought them but they are kind of expensive. $26 after shipping. Good quality though. http://www.guldstrand.com/
