sway bar bushing gremlins

[topher5150]

A few months ago I put new Energy Suspension sway bar bushings on the front of the Mark. A couple of weeks ago I had to crank the bolts down on the drivers side because it was moving around in the bracket, now in the past couple of days I noticed the other side has gotten loose. I grabbed the sway bar and there was some pretty big slop in it. It wasn't the bracket moving but the bushing moving inside the bracket.

Wrong size bushings?

The sway bar bushings that I used were the red Energy Suspension set, I originally put the Ford bushing caps on. I put the caps on today that came with the bushing set, and greased them and it still clunks...could it be the sway bar links

That's a common problem, and more likely than the mounts.

sway bar ends

Agreed and use only the moog end links.I replaced mine with the after market crap 6 months ago and they are making a hellova racket now.The best price I can find for the links is advance auto for 44.00 bucks a side.
