AWR Rear sway bar bushings

I bought those exact ones from ********** and they worked great...

Not sure if I installed them wrong but I didnt use any greese and after about a day of driving on them the sound was gone. Just had to break them in.
 
I have them and wonder why I didn't have them sooner. I love them handling is a little more in touch but the clunk is gone!
 
Did anyone else get an annoying rubber noise from the back when they installed these almost like a squishy sound when you go over bumps. I just installed a bunch of stuff at the same time so im not 100% sure its these but this is where it seems to be coming from I think they just need to break in. They are lubed really good too I also think its the bushings cause my camaro did the same thing when I installed poly bushings on the front sway.
 
That's pretty common with the red ES bushings. Re-greaseable/Graphite impregnated FTW.
 
I suppose it could be done, then you'd need to make channels for the grease to flow through and when all's said and done, you are better off getting Evolv's brackets. AWR should offer the black bushings though.
 
You can get them on ebay, but I'm not sure how they'd work with the Protege ES's sway bar. The re-greaseable bracket won't work, but the black replacement bushing only needs some modification with the MSP. Just look for Energy Suspension bushings.

? I got the msp sways with the msp crossmember.
 
Not sure what part number I got through them, but the # on the side of the bushing is 5043. I'll dig the box up tomorrow and see if I can get you the part number.
 
I just ordered these as well.
What is the right type of grease to put on them? And what kind of grease were you using Laser03pro?

I sprayed them with white lithium grease really good first then put chassis grease on the bar where they go and put them on.
