Post End Link Bushings for Front Sway Bar

I got tired of waiting for companies like Energy Suspension, Addco, **** Cepek, Hellwig and other to come up with polyurethane sway bar bushings for our trucks so yesterday I replaced just the rubber end link bushings with polyurethane. Ford did a pretty cheap job of building this setup. The separator between the bushings is made of plastic and the rubber bushings fold over the plastic.

My replacements bushings were a little smaller than the originals so I took up the space with some 3/8 washings. The bolts that hold the main sway bar brackets are 13mm and the end link bolt/nut are 16mm.

It does corner a little flatter now. I guess I will still have to invest in the Edelbrock shocks.
