chaejohn Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Anyone know where to get bushings 1987 sunrader Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Depends on what your sway bar looks like. My 86 Sunrader sway bar looks nothing like a regular Toyota sway bar. I went everywhere looking for bushings and found nothing. I ended up finding something close at Ace Hardware and making it fit. Had to add washers to keep everything in place. Can you post a pic of where your sway bar connects to the frame. I will see if I can find the part I used. Long time ago and may not be there anymore but hey. It was a long time ago and they are still fine. You could also look at shock absorber bushings. I think some of them would work Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaejohn Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Thank you Linda I will see if the shock bushings will work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrel Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I replaced my sway bar bushings and shock bushings. Got the sway bar bushings from Auto Zone and the shock bushings from a RV repair shop. They had plastic bags of different sized polyurethane bushings, just matched up the sizes. The RV repair shop specialized in alignment, shocks, and upgrades for motorhomes, Hendersons repair in Grants Pass, Or. Just saying that a alignment shop or 4 wheel drive shop may have a variety of bushings in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lansisco Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 My 1984 Pickup doesn't have a rear sway bar and could really use one. Does anyone know where to source either a new kit or used? I'm in Michigan. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maineah Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Typically vehicles with rear leaf springs don't need them. Check for worn/missing parts loose spring U bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lansisco Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I have 100% new springs, shocks, bushings, shackles and hardware as of 3 days ago. I'm not happy with the amount of sway in the rear. I know many Toyota motorhomes have them. I'd like one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maineah Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 $10 says it won't fix it. My old New Horizon had no sway but it also had a 9 leaf spring pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) My Escaper had 7 leafs and a factory rear anti away bar. P.S. It had factory airbags also. Edited June 7, 2021 by WME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maineah Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 First gens did not have a factory sway bars and neither do the second and third gens. Yes after market but with a toy home it's not going to accomplish much. Better off with shocks with springs. It is grossly over weight even with duel wheels. Love it for what it is. Wish I still had mine probably could get 20 grand for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
