Construction & Design:
Energy Suspension’s bushings are crafted from proprietary Hyper-Flex™ polyurethane, a material engineered to withstand harsh road conditions, heat, and chemical exposure far better than traditional rubber. This polyurethane compound resists cracking, deformation, and premature wear, ensuring consistent sway bar performance over time.
The bushings are precision molded to fit tightly around the 15mm diameter sway bar, providing a secure and stable connection that minimizes deflection and unwanted movement. The included end links and brackets are designed to OEM specifications, ensuring a seamless fit and reliable operation within the rear suspension assembly.
Performance & Sound
Upgrading to Energy Suspension’s polyurethane sway bar bushings significantly improves handling by allowing the sway bar to work at 100% efficiency. This results in reduced body lean during cornering, enhanced vehicle stability, and more predictable handling characteristics. Unlike rubber bushings, polyurethane does not absorb or dampen sway bar movement, which translates to a more direct and responsive suspension feel. Additionally, these bushings help eliminate the squeaks and creaks often associated with worn rubber components.

The Energy Suspension 15mm rear sway bar bushing set is designed for straightforward installation on compatible Dodge Dakota and Durango models. It fits the rear sway bar assembly without requiring any modifications or special tools. The package includes all necessary components—bushings, end links, and brackets—allowing for a complete replacement of worn or damaged parts. Installation can typically be completed with basic hand tools and moderate mechanical experience.
