Construction & Design:
These bushings are crafted from Energy Suspension’s proprietary HYPER-FLEX polyurethane compound, which offers exceptional resistance to wear, chemicals, and environmental factors compared to traditional rubber. The material maintains its shape and performance characteristics over time, preventing the common issues of bushing deformation and deterioration.
The innovative channel design integrated into the bushings allows grease to be evenly distributed across all contact surfaces, minimizing friction and virtually eliminating squeaking noises. This design also extends the service life of the bushings by reducing internal wear. The bushings are precision-molded to fit securely around the sway bar and mount cleanly to the chassis, ensuring consistent performance and ease of installation.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation is straightforward and requires no special modifications. The bushings are designed to fit the factory sway bar and mounting points on 2004–2006 Scion xA and xB models, accommodating standard 10mm or 3/8" mounting bolts. The kit includes both left and right side bushings, allowing for a complete front sway bar bushing replacement in one service.
Greasing the bushings through the included zerk fittings during installation helps ensure smooth operation and long-term durability. This upgrade is compatible with stock suspension setups and can be combined with other suspension enhancements for improved handling performance.
