18-1132-BL
Overview:
The Prothane Front Sway Bar Bushings are precision-engineered suspension components designed specifically for the 2005 to 2007 Scion tC. These bushings serve as a critical interface between the sway bar and the vehicle’s chassis, helping to reduce unwanted movement and improve handling stability. Crafted for enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, they provide a significant upgrade over the factory rubber bushings by offering enhanced durability and firmer sway bar control.
Ideal for those seeking improved cornering response and reduced body roll, these bushings help maintain consistent sway bar performance under various driving conditions. Their 21mm size ensures a perfect fit for the front sway bar of the specified Scion tC models, delivering reliable, long-lasting performance.
Key Features:
Prothane’s Front Sway Bar Bushings combine advanced materials and thoughtful design to enhance your vehicle’s suspension system. Key features include:
- Precision molded to fit 21mm front sway bars on 2005–2007 Scion tC models
- Constructed from high-quality polyurethane for superior durability and resistance to wear
- Improves sway bar efficiency by reducing deflection and unwanted movement
- Black finish for a clean, professional appearance under the hood
- Resistant to oil, chemicals, and road contaminants for long service life
- Easy installation with no modifications required
- Maintains suspension geometry and improves handling response
- Reduces chassis noise and vibration compared to worn factory bushings
Construction & Design:
These bushings are manufactured from premium-grade polyurethane, a material known for its excellent balance of flexibility and toughness. Unlike traditional rubber bushings, polyurethane resists cracking, deformation, and degradation caused by heat, oil, and environmental exposure. The design ensures a snug fit around the sway bar, minimizing play and maximizing the transfer of forces to the chassis for improved handling precision.
Prothane’s manufacturing process guarantees consistent dimensions and material density, ensuring each bushing performs reliably over time. The black coloration is not only aesthetic but also indicative of the durable coating that protects against corrosion and wear.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation of the Prothane Front Sway Bar Bushings is straightforward and requires no special tools or modifications. They are designed to directly replace the factory bushings on the front sway bar of 2005–2007 Scion tC models with a 21mm diameter bar. Simply remove the old bushings, clean the mounting surfaces, and install the new Prothane bushings in their place.
The bushings’ precise fitment ensures proper alignment and secure mounting, preserving the vehicle’s suspension geometry and providing immediate improvements in handling feel and stability.
