I am going to replace my factory rear sway bar with a 1LE rear sway bar, which is a larger diameter. Do you also have to replace the factory bushings that wrap around the sway bar and mount to the axle when going to the 1LE bar?

Yes, you do need to replace them. Might as well get the Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings to further stiffen them up. I bought new GM end links because they're poly anyway and fit perfect.
