    Excellent Question.

    I installed mine with the slit open on the side. Perhaps that is wrong.

    The beast hasnt fallen apart yet (knock on wood) but perhaps it would be better installed the other way.

    Hey Ryan, if you have the time, could you please post the part #'s for the ones you have?

    I have the part #'s that Moncha originally posted, but when I ordered them, they came in black...I like the red mo bettah...

    Energy Suspension

    Front: 9.5163G Greasable Sway Bar Bushing Set 28MM

    Rear: 9.5156G Greasable Sway Bar Bushing Set 3/4” 19MM

    I would assume that there would be an "R" in the part number, but not sure if it would be before or after the "G".

    Thanks, L W

    dub, the "R" just takes place of the "G" iirc

    Thanks Eric, but I was under the (possibly mistaken) impression that the "G" stood for greasable, & thought that might have to be included in the part # somewhere...

    Dub, when I ordered mine I thought that there was a place on the Energy Suspension website that allowed you to pick the color. I could be totally off base though.

    Oh, oh, just hit ES's website and at the bottom of this page: http://www.energysuspension.com/pages/tableco.html it says "For Black Product - use color code "G" after the part number" "For Red Product - use color code "R" after the part number.
