The bushings I supply are high durometer urethane, and actually pretty slippery without lube. But we include this high end stuff synthetic grease called Accrolube specific meant for use on swaybars (there are different types). Mine don't make a peep.

I sell UMI's full line of parts (including these new mounts) and they handle my springs and bars as well.
My bar and UMI's aren't the same (they are the same OD) but they are aimed at different value levels. Mine cost a bit more, but save a massive amount of weight in comparison for $389.98. I know that not everyone will want to pay for that so I also carry the UMI bars which are about $319.00/set. Some folks don't think saving 20+ pounds is worth spending $70, and so I carry the UMI stuff as well because it's balanced the way I prefer (same physical size as mine, in fact we discussed it and Ryan has driven my car). If the UMI bars were 32/21 or 35/25 or some such I would not carry them.
Frankly folks are hell-bent on Chrome-Moly options on things like LCA's and such, and will spend upward of $100 on that option to save 5 pounds. But sometimes $70 to save 20 they don't fine worthwhile. I don't get it, but that's sometimes the case.

We now added the sway bar mount kit to our site that includes the front 35mm bushings and rear 22mm bushings. This kit will work on UMI sway bar package #211213 and Strano's sway bar package.
