Overview
The Energy Suspension 5.5174G is a black front sway bar bushing set for a 32 mm sway bar. It is made of performance polyurethane and includes sway bar end link bushings, so both the bar mounts and the end link joints can be serviced from one set.
The polyurethane is designed to last longer than rubber. A bushing set like this is intended to tighten sway bar response by reducing movement at the mounts.
Key features
- 32 mm bar diameter
- Black front sway bar bushings
- Includes sway bar end link bushings
- Performance polyurethane construction
Why bushings affect handling
Sway bar bushings let the bar rotate while holding it firmly to the frame. When they soften or crack, the bar can shift sideways, and body roll can feel less controlled. Polyurethane is firmer than rubber, so it transfers more road feel and may squeak if the contact surfaces run dry.
End link bushings take movement in a different direction, so they should be checked whenever the bar bushings are replaced. Clean the bar and brackets before fitting, and tighten the hardware to the vehicle’s factory torque values. Recheck the fasteners after the first few drives, and grease where the design allows.
Note any clunking over speed bumps, since it often traces back to these parts. Consistent maintenance keeps the bar working as intended and helps the suspension feel controlled on both pavement and trail.
