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 16.5146
starstarstarstarstar" Fits my 2009 Honda civic si perfectly "
Measured the front sway bar with calipers then picked these bushings (28mm), they fit perfectly, however, it is a pain getting the bracket bolts back in, be sure and have a powered torque driver to make the bolt install easier. If Honda had made the bracket bolts 5mm longer, front and back, the install would be painless. Once installed (front and back) the steering and tracking down the highway is 100 times better, with no drift across lanes when you take your hands off the steering wheel, I should have replaced the bushings years ago. (Be sure and match L & R to the old bushings and do not install them backwards!!!!)
