    I have the gmpp rear sway and I wanna do poly bushings.............I ordered a set of bushings from energy suspension and the bracket needs to be modified but my friend with all the necessary equipment is not in the states right now (due to he is in the service) so I am at a stand still with my rear bar.my question is,is there anywhere you guys could suggest I go to get a set of rear poly bushings with the correct bracket so I can finally be done with it or can someone here modify the brackets that came with the energy suspension set to fit the prix?

    Wish it were that simple but the bushing that came with the set is smaller than the stock bracket.I was told I could cut or shave the bracket that came with the energy suspensions but the guy who told me it could be done said it would still need to be bent.

    I put the bushing on the bar then pushed the bracket until i could get the bolt in then ran it in the rest of the way with an impact.
