wait, the TSB includes a new stabilizer bar itself?
twintrbo;6343706... Weird they would offer 2 versions of the same part though...[/QUOTE said:I agree, I would think the new part would superceede the old part, that's pretty common.
If it started happening in the recent days (dry cold weather) I highly suspect dry grease: either dry in the bushing or dry in the end links. But I have no idea what sounds you are hearing so it could be anything..I think I might try the bar disable before I order parts. It's gotten really bad lately.
I got cheap bushings off Rock Auto - bout 2 pair just in case b/c they were so cheap. No problems in the 2 years, and although we have decent arterials and great freeway asphalt, the residential road we live on SUCKS. Modern-day suspensions feel just like a buckboard. So no problems means they are holding their own.
BTW, if you HAVE replaced the bushings, perhaps it could be the spring seats or shock mounts, which, depending on the make/model, can also die prematurely.
I copied your setup and I have about 5500 mi on it. I'm putting stock links back today to see what happens. I have a hard time believing dry grease could make so much noise, it sounds terrible.
