Energy Suspension Performance Polyurethane Sway Bar Bushing Set

2002–2010 Dodge Ram 1500

5.5160R

Overview:

The Energy Suspension Performance Polyurethane 34mm Front Sway Bar Bushing Set is engineered to significantly enhance the handling and stability of your Dodge Ram 1500 models from 2002 through 2010. Designed for enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, this bushing set replaces the original rubber bushings with durable, high-performance polyurethane components. By improving sway bar efficiency, these bushings reduce body roll and increase cornering precision, delivering a more confident and controlled driving experience.

Ideal for those seeking a cost-effective upgrade that offers noticeable improvements in suspension response without the need for a larger sway bar, this set ensures your vehicle’s sway bar system operates at peak efficiency. The red polyurethane bushings not only provide superior performance but also long-lasting durability compared to OEM rubber parts.

Key Features:

Energy Suspension’s sway bar bushings are crafted to maximize your vehicle’s handling capabilities. Key features include:

• Constructed from Hyper-Flex™ polyurethane for exceptional durability and longevity
• Designed to fit front sway bars with a 34mm diameter, ensuring a precise and secure fit
• Includes end link bushing for one end of the sway bar link to complete the upgrade
• Improves sway bar system efficiency, allowing it to work at 100% capacity
• Reduces body roll and enhances cornering stability for safer, more responsive handling
• Resistant to oil, chemicals, and road contaminants, maintaining performance over time
• Easy to install with no modifications required, making it suitable for DIY enthusiasts
• Lasts significantly longer than OEM rubber bushings, reducing maintenance frequency

Construction & Design:

These bushings are manufactured using Energy Suspension’s proprietary Hyper-Flex™ polyurethane compound, which offers superior elasticity and resilience compared to traditional rubber. This material resists cracking, deformation, and deterioration caused by heat, oil, and environmental exposure. The precision molding process ensures a snug fit around the sway bar, minimizing unwanted movement and noise while maximizing suspension performance. The vibrant red color not only adds a visual upgrade but also indicates the high-performance nature of the components.

Performance & Sound

Upgrading to polyurethane bushings enhances the sway bar’s ability to control chassis roll during cornering, resulting in improved handling dynamics and vehicle stability. Unlike worn rubber bushings that can flex and absorb sway bar movement, these bushings maintain firm contact, translating to sharper steering response and a more connected driving feel. Additionally, the reduction in bushing deflection helps maintain consistent suspension geometry, which can contribute to more predictable vehicle behavior under load. While polyurethane bushings may transmit slightly more road noise and vibration compared to rubber, this trade-off is minimal and often appreciated by performance-minded drivers.

Installation & Fitment:

The Energy Suspension 34mm front sway bar bushing set is designed for straightforward installation on Dodge Ram 1500 models from 2002 to 2010. The bushings fit directly onto the sway bar without the need for any modifications or special tools, making it an accessible upgrade for both professional mechanics and experienced DIYers. The included end link bushing ensures a complete refresh of the sway bar mounting points, further enhancing system performance. It is recommended to inspect the sway bar and related hardware during installation and replace any worn components to maximize the benefits of this upgrade.

What's Included:

• Two 34mm front sway bar polyurethane bushings (red)
• One end link bushing for one end of the sway bar link
• Installation instructions

Ideal For:

This bushing set is perfect for Dodge Ram 1500 owners looking to improve handling without investing in a larger sway bar or extensive suspension modifications. It suits daily drivers seeking enhanced stability and cornering confidence, as well as enthusiasts who want a durable, performance-oriented upgrade that lasts longer than factory rubber bushings. Whether you use your Ram for towing, hauling, or spirited driving, these bushings help maintain better control and reduce body roll for a safer, more enjoyable ride.

Energy Suspension builds performance polyurethane suspension bushings and chassis components designed to replace soft, worn factory rubber. Their Hyper-Flex® material is aimed at improving steering response, handling consistency, and durability—ideal for enthusiasts who want a tighter, more connected feel on street or track.
