The eibachs reuse your OE brackets. I suppose it's possible to drill/tap a hole and install your own zerk fitting.

On the hotchkis, do their bushings have a hole in them that lines up with the fitting so grease gets on the inside (between bushing and bar)?

We'll see how long mine last before they start making noise. If I have to lube them once or twice a year, I may just install my own fittings.

Yes, otherwise the grease zerk would be pretty useless.

energysuspension.com | Sway Bar & End Link Bushings

Amazon sells these.

I'm sure there's a company out there that has better quality materials than energy suspension (the review of one of the 27mm bushing/brackets was poor - the bracket broke).

Found some more here: http://www.energysuspensionparts.com...r-Bushings.asp

Did my research, spoke with John Hotchkis at a car meet.
Bought Hotchkis, never looked back.

Size
Adjustability
Neoprene bushings with new mounting hardware.
Rear mounts adjust so links are vertical when changing resistance.
Greaseable with zerk.

The stillen bars suck because of the welded ends, very unprofessional on there part, and it looks like sloppy welding in the pics too.

Hotckis or Whiteline.
