Swapping out the sway bar bushings on my 89 BII. The bar to frame bushings that are sold for the 89 BII are all too short. The ones for sale are around 2 11/16 inches high (bracket height) and mine is around 3 3/8 inches high. The part number is E97A-5484-AB. I can't find any polyurethane versions of this bushing and only a few rubber ones.
Just for poops and giggles I looked at some 1990 bushings and most of those where taller ones, but none that I can find are a direct replacement for E97A-5484-AB. Looks like I will have to take a gamble with these.
Anyone know whats going on? Did they use a 90's sway bar on my 89? Back to the future style?
Forgot to mention the hole is around an inch in diameter...maybe a 1/16th over that. Hard to tell with all the wear on a 31 year old bushing.
