these trucks dont have struts on them, they have shocks at all 4 corners . . . just sayin

 

U know what im sayin dont be mean!

 

In this photo I can see the rubber bushing (on the left frame mount) is pushed really tight against the 4 washers. Well the rubber is making the washers turn against each other (squeak!). In contrast the right side has at least a washer thickness opening between the mount and bushing.

I'm racking my brain right now trying to figure out how to make it not move other than installing square washers.

 

oh crap this for a durango my bad my bad sry dudes, i thought this was a 3rd gen. ram thread

 

lol hydra i think you got some competition, hes probably had more to drink than you today

 

I don't think it's the washers. I lubed up the point where I originally thought was making the squeaking (where the paint is being rubbed off) with this high performance bushing grease I have and te squeaking went away. I would prefer the shackle to not touch the piece of metal and rub the paint off but idk if something can be done about it.

I don't have a caliper to measure my front sway bar. Is there a way to check the thickness? 2001 slt 4x4 4.7l . Online they sell bushings for sway bars that are 1.3" thick and 1.1 around there. I don't know which one it is though lol.

 

1.40" Bar on that says www.rockauto.com. Could be the 1.3" so either way.

 

ill measure mine for ya tomorrow, but it is possible that they are different sizes btwn the years

 

ok thanks. well 2001 2002 any difference between those years?

 

should i just get the 1.40"? and where would i get the outside bushings? or are they all the same? i didnt have time to look closely at the outside ones.
