2010 Ford Escape - Sway/Stabilizer Bar Bushing

Ford F-Series Sway/Stabilizer Bar Bushing

The sway bar on your Ford F-Series, sometimes called the stabilizer bar, is a metal bar that connects to the frame and suspension and flexes when the truck makes turns to keep the suspension stable and to prevent you from feeling the swaying motion caused by turning. The sway bar is also very important to prevent vehicle rollovers in trucks and SUVs with a higher center of gravity. While the sway bar itself rarely has problems or suffers damage, the sway bar bushings that attach the sway bar to the frame can wear out with age. If your Ford F-Series is making clunking or banging sounds when you go over speed bumps, or if the truck has poor handling when you make sharp turns or you feel more body roll or sway when turning, the sway bar bushings may need to be replaced. O'Reilly Auto Parts carries sway bar bushings and sway bar links for your Ford F-Series for the best handling repair solution.
