Construction & Design:

Prothane bushings are crafted from high-quality polyurethane, a material known for its excellent durability and resistance to deformation. Unlike traditional rubber bushings that can deteriorate and compress over time, polyurethane maintains its shape and stiffness, ensuring consistent sway bar performance. The 22mm diameter is engineered to match the factory sway bar size precisely, providing a snug fit that eliminates unwanted movement.

The bushings are designed to withstand harsh road conditions, exposure to oils, greases, and temperature fluctuations without cracking or swelling. Their vibrant red color not only adds a visual upgrade but also indicates the use of premium materials and construction standards.

These bushings are a direct replacement for the original rubber components and fit both 2WD and 4WD models from 1999 through 2001, including Base, R/T, SLT, and Sport trims. Basic hand tools are sufficient for removal of the old bushings and installation of the new ones.

For best results, it is recommended to inspect the sway bar and mounting brackets during installation and replace any worn hardware. Proper installation ensures optimal sway bar function and improved vehicle handling.
