Re: rear sway bar bushings. hard to find?

My local Autozone and Advance Auto both have the rear swap bar bushings in stock. In Polyurethane and rubber, although I don't know who would go with rubber since they are the same price. Have you tried checking the store's websites? Usually you can check and see what they have in stock, or at least get the part numbers so they can order them.

YOU have to measure the diameter of your bushing first. Clean a spot off near the bracket, and measure. There's no set reasoning for the size differences - some cars have 22mm, some 21mm, some 24mm, etc.
