I actually got some pretty nice ones at Autozone. About $12 for the set, IIRC.

Hi Tony,
Did you replace all 6 bushings with this kit?
Did you have to modify these to fit -- especially the end link bushings?
Any squeeking?

I picked up a set from Pep Boys and the diagram on the package showed end links that were perpendicular to both the sway bar and control arm.  So, I returned them.

These two outfits list polyU bushes for the sway bars, but the cost is higher than $12:
superflex.co.uk
powerflex.co.uk

Also, I've asked the list for any experience with either company, but no one has piped up.

.....and dammit, sway bar is two words!  ;^o)
