Default Neuspeed sawy bar bushing????

Searched the forum & web, but I can't find polyurethane bushing. I found the sway bar with bushings, but I just need the bushing.

When I accelerate I hear a click coming from the read end, I also hear it when I hit the breaks. I put the car on the lift & I found the sway bar bushings shot. The bar moves side to side pretty effortlessly. Has anyone experienced this? Is that clicking usually associated with worn sway bar bushings?

Not sure on the bushings, but also check the end links, & your rear diff mount, it sounds more like a broken or worn bushing on the mount, then the SB.

SB noise would be more when going over bumps, then accel & decel.

You know what, I was thinking that, but when I saw the sway bar bushings I thought that could be the culprit. I did get a chance to move around the wheels & bonus test the car, I didn’t feel any play. I did however move the drive shaft back & forth & I did get feel some play. I’ll get the car back up on the lift tomorrow & check the diff mount.

Thanks for your help 2k S4....
