They are pretty much the same. Prothane is less expensive, but I have only seen their parts sold online. Most of my suspension is Prothane. Front bar kit is Energy, along with ball joint, and tie rod boots.

I've looked at both of them, comparing some of the replacements for the same locations. If you don't mark them, I defy you to tell who made which.

I just redid my front and rear sway bars and control arms with the black Energy Suspensions, wow, what a difference. My 85 had some worn rubber but the ride is fantastic, but I also upgraded tires to Cooper Zeon RS-S. Night and day all around
