IF you have the TRD sway bars... How are they working for you? Do they use polyurethane or rubber bushings? I currently have the Intrax sway bars and am having problems with the bushing squeaking big time... and am thinking of changing over. Suggestions?

I have 'em. Don't know what the bushings are. They don't squeak. They sure make the car handle great though!

I have the TRD sways and for a while, they squeeked (a little bit), I had one of friend's shop check the installation and the bracket that holds the sway bar in place (around the bushing) was loose. He tightened the part and viola! No more squeeks...

The bracket is bolted to the top of the car BTW...
