rear sway bar bushing collars?
Hi, I have a used 23mm swaybar here. I need to buy some new stabilizer end bushings for it. The problem I am having is that someone replaced the normal honda rubber bushings with a metal collar and brass bushings. I want to go back to the honda OE setup, but when I look at the parts catalog, they call for (4) COLLAR (INNER), which is part #52312-ST7-Z00. I can't seem to understand why there would be 4, unless they are really short and there is 2 on each bushing. Can someone that has had their swaybar off recentely let me know the reason for the 4 collars?
If I need to put up some pictures to explain, I can. Thanks for the help.

Re: rear sway bar bushing collars? (743power)
i havent looked up the parts but if your talking about the metal insert on the end of the swaybars (where the bolt for the endlink goes into) then oem will have two pieces for each end of the swaybar. 2 pieces on each end of the sway bar. 4 in total.
its four because the collars come in two pieces for each side of the sway bar.. 1 on each opening of one side of the sway bar hole.
mugen uses 1 piece, oem uses two piece.
also regardless of having 22mm,23mm,24mm(mugen) and even 26mm (mugen) rear swaybars the oem inserts will fit just fine.
i also lubed them preinstalling them. and used grease on the bolts when bolted to the endlinks to minimize squeaks and rust issues

excellent reply, everything I needed to know. I will post pictures of what I had on this swaybar just for reference. . .
