All,

I am looking to replace the front sway/stabilizer bar bushings. My brackets are looking pretty corroded, so I thought I would replace those too. I've measured my bar at 34mm, which is correct according to the RPO codes for '91 Z28 car as well.

However, I'm having a heck of a time finding the brackets? Most places (spohn, top down, energy suspension) are only selling the bushings and not the brackets. Some places, you can find the 36mm bushings with brackets... but I'm assuming that the different sized bushings required a different size bracket. Is that true?

I guess I can just take the current ones off and clean 'em up as long as they're not cracked/broken. But I figured I'd get a fresh set of everything on there while I was doing it.

Can't imagine how?

Ignore the suggested application.

They usually have em hanging on cards at AutoZone too.

There's also another part # for ones equipped with grease bushings. Now that you know how to look, I'll let you find em. Should take all of about a back-breaking 3.7 seconds or so.

Check the following site:

The same brackets are used for all bushings.

Wow... way to be a forum troll.

By the way... if you bothered read the page you link to... those are for a Ford Mustang, they wouldn't work for the 83-92 Camaros, see below.

Yes, TDS does sell a set of 34mm bushings for the 82 Camaro. But, as I mentioned in my post... I have a '91 and based on my research of the other posts on this board, the 83-92 third gens have an off-set bolt pattern which is different from the in-line bolt pattern on the 82's.

So, neither sets being linked to will work for this application unless someone knows something I dont.

they are all a straight bolt pattern. no offset for the sway bar. the TDS ones will work just fine, and are greasable, which is a good plus.

appears i may be wrong, but try this link, these are for 83-92

The front and rear bushings I purchased from TDS and Spohn both came with the greasable brackets.

My bad for the incorrect link. Here's the correct application from the TDS (as I see Sofa has already posted):

So... here's the problem with the set from TDS that I knew about before the post (and why I was looking for other options for the brackets).

If you go to the page... yes, those are brackets and bushings for the 83-92 Camaro. However, if you go to actually add the set to your cart... and you need a set of 34mm bushings to go with his modified greaseable brackets (the bushings are a set of modified energy suspension bushings to allow the the grease to flow from the brackets around the bushing), they don't have 34mm bushings... only 30mm. So... for the size of my sway bar, I can't get a matched set with greaseable bushings.

I guess I could just purchase the brackets and forget about greasing anything...

So what??

Which is why I said:

They're all the same. I have bought the same ones lately (various diameters of bushings, otherwise the same product) to fit Jeep, Cadillac, Chevy truck (full size and mini), and of course, F body.

The whole "82" issue doesn't apply to you, don't worry about it.

So since I told you where to look and what to look for, did you actually LOOK instead of just being a jerk toward me? They're not hard to find at all if you just lose the self-important attitude.

They have the exact ones you need hanging on a card at the AZ down the street from me. Or of course, if you're even lazier than me (which would be real tough but I suppose possible), you could order them and sit back and wait for them to drop out of the big brown truck.

I have updated the web site to show the 34mm & 36mm again. I'm still getting used to the new web site software. For some reason when a product, for example 34mm greasable bushing kit goes out of stock the software removes that option from the site. Even though I go in and update the overall product to show it is in stock I must also go into each size & color option and add them again too.

Thanks for updating the site Lon, placed my order for the 83-92 greaseable bushings/brackets!
