Hi Joe,
I bought some new poly bushings for my front sway bar not to long ago and
they were circular. My brackets that I pulled off were a little bent out of
shape so I straightened them out. As for getting them over the sway
bar....don't split them! The method i used was to put them in some boiling
water for a while so they became softer and then you should be able to slip
them over the bar. Hope this helps.

I've just taken the roll bar off the front of the car. Two questions: What are
the brackets supposed to look like. Are they supposed to be semicircular (to
match the shape of the poly bushings I bought)? The brackets I pulled off are
almost eliptical. The rubber bushings and U bolts are comformed perfectly to
this unsual shape. I can't see how a poly bushing can be made to fit into this
bracket. Second, how do you get the bushing on to the bar? There is no way I
can get the bushing over the ends of the bar. It seems that the bushing would
have to be split to fit, although the rubber bushings were not.
