Default Sway bars/bushings - Any interest?

Ok people...is anyone interested in replacement urethane sway bar bushings and/or upgraded sway bars for your RX? This is your chance to speak up...if there is enough interest I think that something can actually happen about it.

The OEM replacement bushings will be $29, sway bar sets with urethane bushings will be $499.

Please respond if you are interesed, also post your year and if your RX is 2WD or 4WD.

I'd be interested to, if they'll fit a '98 Harrier. My only (minor) gripe with the RX300/Harrier is too much body roll on tight tarmac bends, but I don't want to go to stiffer springs and compromise the excellent ride over rough, un-paved, roads.

Sorry - 4WD 3l V6 of course javascript:smilie('')

ex Japanese domestic market - Toyota NZ source them out of the Toyota Japan dealer network and run them through a refurbishment program down here.

I'm hoping that it is pretty similar to the 99 model year RX as the RX will have been assembled in Japan from mid 98 onwards.
