Construction & Design:

These sway bar bushings are crafted from Energy Suspension’s proprietary Hyper-Flex™ polyurethane, a material engineered to withstand harsh automotive environments while maintaining flexibility and strength. Unlike traditional rubber bushings that degrade and compress over time, Hyper-Flex™ polyurethane resists cracking, swelling, and deformation. This ensures consistent sway bar performance and improved handling characteristics throughout the life of the product.

The bushings are precision molded to fit 35mm diameter sway bars commonly found on the front suspension of Dodge Dakota and Durango models within the specified years. Their design allows for secure mounting while minimizing unwanted movement and noise, delivering a firmer, more responsive suspension feel.

Installation is straightforward and designed to be a direct replacement for the original equipment bushings. No special tools or modifications are required, making this an ideal upgrade for both professional mechanics and DIY enthusiasts. The bushings fit front sway bars on the following vehicles:

• Dodge Dakota (1997–2004) including Base, R/T, SLT, SLT Plus, Sport, Sport Plus, and SXT trims
• Dodge Durango (1998–2003) including Base, R/T, SLT, SLT Plus, and Sport trims
