I received my sway bars in the mail yesterday and was expecting to receive at least new sway bar bushings, however from reading the install instructions it sounds like I am supposed to reuse the stock bushings? How will that work with the larger diameter bars? :gotme

Anyone with experience with these bars please let me know what you did.

Thanks!

So from my determination to find an answer, it sounds like the Journey and sport both have the same size sway bars, and that the Stillen is actually the same size as well, just solid instead of hollow?

Can anyone confirm?

The Stillen rear swaybar is solid and a larger diameter than the stock bar. Also, Stillen does not provide the bushings to fit and you can't use the stock units because they're too small. I wound up using Chevy truck bushings that were the right size. It works fine but I was a little disappointed in that Stillen did not provide all the parts needed to install.
