Default Urethane question

I have just replaced my OEM struts/mounts with KYB strut mounts. I have ordered Solara strut bar and TRD RSB.

I want to get urethane bushings for the RSB and FSB and have looked at whiteline and energy suspension, but am confused. I am not sure if the whiteline bushings will fit the stock ES300 FSB or the solara TRD RSB? Also, when looking at energysuspension, they show a RSB bush, but I am not clear if it will fit the TRD RSB as well, they show an 18 and 19mm universal option for the FSB, but I don't know which one mine is (I don't have access to a caliper).

Can anyone tell me what parts I need to order and where is the best place to buy them?

Also, should I replace the sway bar links as well? Is there urethane options or do I have to get OEM?

I have a 1997 ES300.

Thanks much
Dan

If you have the factory AVS system, getting coilovers will negate that system. You are better off doing a mild spring drop if possible i.e. Eibach Pro-Kit. If you want a lower than 1" drop, get the MCV20 Solara version since it does provide a 1.6" drop. Good Luck.
Im interested in a Rear Sway bar but I have a 96? What, if any, Solara options are available to me?

None unfortunately from the Solara. But have no fear, the MCV10 Camry V6 has a Whiteline sway bar available for you!

Just to make sure I pick the right one, do you have the model # by any chance?
