I was looking at getting some used Stillen Sways. Do I need to buy new rubber for them? How much are do they run and where?

no need for new bushings unless yours are shot, mine were not. i would go to stillen find the part number, copy and paste into google and you should find some websites that sell them and different prices, when i was looking i think stillen had them on sale, so they had the best price at that time

Thank you for the info. I heard they can make noise if they are old or if you don't lube them. Any extra noises in my car would drive me nuts.

^ Also be sure to use the right kind of lube -- synthetic grease, not petroleum-based as it will degrade the bushings.

Thanks Hips! Sound like I should buy new bushings and lube. Is it even worth getting the Stillens to replace my OEM Sport Sways? Anyone?
