Sway Bar Bushing PN?
Hello and thanks for the help.
83 H/O
The mechanic putting my new suspension components has informed me of the following:
I did run into one problem the sway bar to frame bushing are bad
I order two sets from different vendor both where wrong
you will need to see if you can locate them
the bar is 1’’ 1\4 and the bracket is 1’’ 3/8 wide that was where the problem was I could get the bar size but would not fit the bracket
I am seeing plenty of replacement parts that accept a 1 1/4" diameter bushing but I can't find anything labeled to accept a certain bracket measurement. This is what I am finding to me the correct piece, I'd appreciate someone with more knowledge helping me get the correct piece.

I have only met 1 mechanic that could blue print/find parts/source material and provide quality service in a reasonable time frame for a fair price. It's generally one or the other. That gent is a Vietnam vet who is hanging it up since opening his shop after 38 years ago and I will surely miss him. The other 15+ shops i've worked with over 16 years? This has always been the case. Where I live most of these cars are rotted out salt boxes and don't have any work done to them. Any "custom" speed shop in this area wants to hook up a lap top to a coyote mustang and give you a bill, not put heat to a 34 year old suspension. So yes, they should, but because I don't have adequate space in my garage to safely perform this project I have to go with the place I know will keep it inside, get it back in under a month and not charge me insane labor because I brought them something old.
