My dumbass couldve bought the sway bar bushings for cheaper and actually noticed something.

Actually replacing them does give you a more positive firm shift. They are not supposed to DO ANYTHING, they just flex less.

And good job bumping and jacking the oldest thread on H-T

Re: The Official Energy Suspension Bushing Thread.

Just finished doing the rear and passenger side mount inserts and woah did it make a big difference.

I did notice slightly more vibration, but not much rattling as I thought I would get. Launching, I get less wheel hop (its still there though!! arggh), and when I shift at redline, I can start speeding up much faster. Less of a lag between shifts.

I highly recommend, best $35 ever spent. I didnt notice anything when I had just the passenger side in though.
