lock Warranty Information keyboard_arrow_down
Moog fulfills their warranty through their individual dealers. That means that in order to receive warranty support, you will have to refer back to the original dealer you purchased the part from. Be sure to check the dealer's warranty support before you buy the part to make sure that they will properly support the warranty. If a dealer will only refer you back to the manufacturer in order to receive warranty support, then you may not actually have any warranty at all.

moog-k201614 | 17.3mm Front Sway Bar Bushings | 05-10 Cobalt 03-07 Ion
17.3mm Sway Bar Bushings with Synthetic Fabric Lining 2005-2010 Chevy Cobalt | 2007-2010 Pontiac G5
These 17.3mm (0.68in) Front Sway Bar Bushings fit the 05-06 Pontiac Pursuit or the 03-07 Saturn Ion and provides a better option than other original equipment (OE) replacements. Because the inner diameter of these bushings have a new synthetic fabric liner they will last longer than the OE sway bar bushings and eliminate rubber-on-metal squeaking that develops when the original bushings age and wear down. These front sway bar bushings will provide a stable grip on your sway bar and improve handling in a turn.
Worn OE Sway Bar Bushings
If you've noticed a lot of squeaking when you turn or an excessive amount of body roll from your Pontiac or Chevy then you probably have worn sway bar bushings. The inner diameter of your OE front sway bar bushings will eventually wear down meaning the sway bar is loose and this can cause "body roll" in your car and possibly make you lose traction during a turn. This can affect your tire wear and the handling of your car while taking a sharp corner. Those worn bushings can also become squeaky as they age, making you cringe with the noise at every bump and turn.
Longer Lasting Lined Sway Bar Bushings
The OE front sway bar bushings on your Cobalt, G5, Pursuit, or Ion are made of rubber which is great for absorbing shocks from the road but they can wear down relatively quickly. You will almost certainly need to replace the sway bar bushings during the life of your vehicle, especially if you sometimes drive on backroads in Hood County or make lots of turns while cruising around Downtown Dallas. The Problem Solvers at Moog have come up with a solution to this durability problem with their Synthetic Lined Front Sway Bar Bushings for Chevy, Pontiac, and Saturn cars.
Replace or Upgrade?
The new PTFE synthetic fabric lining creates a tough barrier between the sway bar and the sway bar bushings, reducing the wear that the friction of turning causes. Moog's synthetic fabric lined bushings have been shown to last 3 times longer than other OE replacements, eliminate squeaking, and restore the ride to a like new feeling. Thanks to that lining, a rougher commute won't wear down your sway bar bushings nearly as fast, which comes in handy if you sometimes travel farm roads like those around Suspension.com headquarters.
These bushings are also easily installed due to the split design, making this the easiest DIY suspension upgrade or replacement you can take on. All you need is a simple socket set to unbolt the bracket, remove the old bushing, slip the new bushing over the bar, and reinstall the bracket. This job is easily accomplished in your garage or driveway, no trip to the shop required. Also, Suspension.com will handle any warranty issues in house, so our teams will deal with any problems that come up so you don't have to.
