Key Features:

Prothane sway bar bushings combine advanced materials and design to improve suspension performance. Key features include:

• Constructed from high-quality red polyurethane for superior durability and resistance to wear
• Precisely sized 28mm inner diameter to fit front sway bars on specified Dodge Dakota and Durango models
• Improves sway bar efficiency by reducing deflection and flex compared to OEM rubber bushings

Construction & Design:

These sway bar bushings are crafted from premium polyurethane, a material known for its excellent balance of stiffness and flexibility. Unlike conventional rubber bushings, polyurethane resists deformation and deterioration caused by heat, oil, and road contaminants. The 28mm bore is engineered to snugly fit the front sway bar, ensuring consistent contact and minimal movement.

Prothane’s manufacturing process ensures tight tolerances and uniform density, which translates into reliable performance and longevity. The bushings are designed to absorb vibrations while maintaining firm sway bar control, resulting in improved handling characteristics without introducing harshness.

Installation & Fitment:

Installation of the Prothane front sway bar bushings is straightforward and requires no special tools or modifications. These bushings are a direct fit replacement for the factory rubber units on the front sway bars of Dodge Dakota 2WD models from 1997 through 2001 and Dodge Durango models from 1999 through 2001. Simply remove the old bushings, clean the sway bar and mounting brackets, then install the new polyurethane bushings in the same orientation.

Proper installation ensures optimal sway bar performance and improved vehicle stability. It is recommended to inspect related suspension components during installation to maintain overall system integrity.
