Energy Suspension Sway Bar Bushings
Energy Suspension Hyperflex Sway Bar bushings are made of polyurethane, which is a much more durable material for suspension bushings than rubber. Polyurethane does not break down due to road grime, weather or oils the way the rubber can. Have the peace of mind knowing you have a long lasting part on your sway bar with Energy Suspension's sway bar bushings. Energy Suspension's polyurethane sway bar bushings provide a secure grip on the sway bar and do not warp over time. With this snug grip, your vehicle will see a performance boost similar to installing a larger sway bar.
Faulty Rubber
A sway bar's function is to maintain the maximum amount of road contact during tires. The sway bar is held to the frame of the vehicle with a sway bar bushing. Original Equipment rubber can warp and/or crack, losing its grip on the bar. This causes your sway bar to lose its effectiveness. Just look at the old rubber sway bar bushing to the left. Imagine how good of a grip that thing could keep on a sway bar. Go with Polyurethane.
Be sure to use Formula 5
The sway bar bushing sees a lot of action, so make sure you grease it well with Energy Suspension's own Formula 5 Bushing Lubricant. Using plenty of grease is the best way to ensure a long lasting part without any squeaking. If you'd like some extra grease just in case, pick up an extra 3 pack or an 8 ounce tube.

Energy Suspension 15.5101
starstarstarstar_borderstar_border" Review 1 Year Later "
I would have given 5 stars but I couldnt use the sway bushings. The diameter of the bushings was slightly larger than expected. It wouldve been too much play on the sway bar. Luckily my old sway bar bushing were still good condition and re-used those instead. I drive my GTI only on the weekends. So far so good. I plan to locate the right sized swar bar bushings were still in good condition and re-used them. Maybe the ones I received were defective. Anywho, I drive my VWMK2 GTI on the weekends only. She feels very responsive, but I wonder how much more of a difference it wouldve make if sway bushings were sized right.\nEditors Note. It is very important to measure your sway bar before ordering sway bar bushings. Some vehicles can have 2-4 different size bars depends if it is a base, touring or luxury model.
