Default poly sway bar bushing

I can find the 23.6 rear bushing #46190 for $14.99. I can't locate the front 28.6 poly bushing for my Z51 system. Other sizes 30 mm etc, but not 28.6 diameter. I tried VB and MAD. Any one have a source? Thanks.

Try Quickor. Call them and ask if they'll do a custom bushing. Delrin is another option for the custom route as well, but it'll stiffen the swaybar even more.

I got mine at Ecklers.
Check your sizes first. The Z51 bushings on my '97 were 22mm rear and 26 mm front. These were a perfect fit.

Both front and rear sway bars were increased in size in 2000, I thought someone would have used poly bushings on a 2000+ Z51 by now. I e-mailed a company about the front 28.6 poly bushing. I will let you guys know what I find. Maybe someone will post a source before me.
