Wanted - Brackets for front swaybar for 2000 XJ
Permalink  

I'm needing a set of the metal brackets that mount the front swaybar bushings to the frame.  I've tried the poly bushings and IMO they are junk.  They wear out too fast so I'm going back to the factory rubber bushings.  Like a dummy, I threw the factory brackets away.hmm

Not sure of the diameter of the 2000 swaybar, but I think it is the thicker one so I don't know if just any year brackets will work.  Someone with more knowledge chime in here.


Thanks

Do you have one of those tools to measure the diameter of your sway bar(don't know the name), so that you will be able to get the one that you need?

Yes I have a set of calipers. For some reason I think it is a 28mm swaybar. Guess I should measure it...huh?smile.gif

The factory XJ swaybar came in 6 different sizes from the factory. We've tried to figure it out, but we've yet to associate a size to a year/model. The only one we know for sure is the Up-Country package.

Your best bet is to take a metric wrench to it and see what size it is. Find the smallest wrench that fits it snuggly.

I'm not sure why your having issues with poly bushings. You are greasing them prior to install correct?

Yes I've greased them twice since mounting them up. The hole in the bushing is worn so large I can move the swaybar side to side. The bushing is worn WAY larger than the swaybar diameter. They now squeak, and groan and it's driving me crazy.
