    Looking to replace swaybar bushings, but don't know the size.

    29mm or 30m?

    Also, greasable or standard? I do not have an accurate way to measure my own vehicle.

    ^Need to measure your own vehicle as the Energy Suspension web site lists two possible front sway bar bushing sizes 29mm and 26mm. [​IMG]

    26mm bushing link: https://www.amazon.com/Energy-Suspension-8-5141R-Front-Sway/dp/B01HK4N7LW

    The universal kit likely won't fit.

    Greaseable isn't really necessary. Use the included grease between the bar and the bushing bore, and it'll be good for 5+ years, in my experience with a Subaru Impreza with Energy Suspension rear sway bar bushings.

    Ok, got my friend to measure his. He has same year/model as mine.

    2008 4Runner with 4WD
    29mm for the front sway bar

    So I ordered these from 29mm Bushings from Energy Suspension.
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004IZD9WE/

    It's weird because some websites/forums say front sway bar is 30mm and others say 29mm, for the 4th gen 4wd.

    Moog's website has this warning.

    and Energy Suspension's website
