ENERGY SUSPN Energy Suspension 45195G Chassis Bushing

I installed these bushings on my 2013 mustang GT rear sway bar and they were an exact replacement.Removal of the bar was very straight forward and just takes a little elbow grease to remove the old ones. I found that a small hand saw worked perfect for cutting out and pushing out the old ones. For the end links a vise is basically necessary in order to press the new ones in with ease.For the money compared to buying a new sway bar this is so worth it.

I was debating on buying this set after reading the reviews here on amazon. But I bought it anyways and very happy I did. The install was easy and straight forward and parts fit like intended. Take not this kit is intended for someone with basic shop knowledge and tools. Mustangs come with a variety of different rear sway bars this set is for the 24mm sway bars ONLY! The negative reviews for fitment must be from customers who never measured they sway bars. This set will require a shop press. That is the only way to make this job pain free. If you do not have a press purchase complete assembled links with bushings pre installed. Make sure to use the provided silicone installing the bushings to the links with the press. I assume of other negative reviews concerning removing the lips of the bushing and damaging bushings were from improper use of the press or not using a press. Silicone spray will also ease the removal of old links/bushings from the sway bar. Overall this was approximately a 1hr job on my 2012 mustang V6 performace package car with a 24mm rear sway bar.

I had two issues with this. Outer diameter of the lower drop link bushing is larger than the ID of the OEM drop links for the 2011MY Mustang GT (with 24mm rear bar). Consequently those Energy Suspension bushings in the kit will not fit (the upper drop link and sway bar end bushings appear okay). I looked up that Ford had changed the drop link part number several times in the later model years, so I ended up purchasing the latest Ford drop links to verify my suspicion the lower bushing was changed (it is larger). There were other changes as well that might address the repeated failures I've had with the 2011MY drop links, so for now I'm using the latest Ford parts. If the latest still fail, then I'll try the 4.5159G kit (since now I will have drop links that fit the bushings).Second issue I had was that the kit had four upper drop link bushings. That wouldn't have prohibited installation, but when I contacted Energy Suspension for help with the first problem, they sent me a package two dissimilar bushings, a smaller one for a 20mm bar (which will fit the 2011MY link) and larger one that was the same as the two I already had. I'm concerned they have quality control packaging issues.To their credit they did try to help, but they really don't make the correct parts to fit the 2011MY drop links (without modification).

As mentioned in another review, the yellow steel bushings are too large in the ID for the bolt so I used the Ford bushing.The job took 8 hours and all my ingenuity and many various tools to replace and press in the rear link pieces into the eye links. This job is recommended for good mechanics. All other pieces were correct for a 2013 Mustang GT with 24mm rear bar. Handling did become flatter in the rear after this install.

Fit my 13' Mustang 24mm rear sway bar perfectly! Energy suspension always delivers!

Works great for solving a mystery clunk from my sway bar end links. Lil tough to install if you do not have press or vise.

I have a 2013 V6 Mustang which both the product description and Amazon say this product will fit......it doesn't. The V6 model has a 22mm rear sway bar not a 24mm. Also the metal sleeves that come with this kit have too much play when you put the bolts through them. The company agreed to do the return because their product fitment description was wrong but I had to pay return shipping. So now even though this is a Prime item I have to pay $10 in return shipping on a $28 item.

Even though amazon web site stated this item fits my 2014 Ford Mustang with 3.7 Ltr V6 it does not. This kit is for 24mm swaybar found on the GT model. My car has a 22mm sway bar.
