Default F-Sport Sway Bar for GS450h

Hi All,

I need help to clarify which F-Sport Sway Bar can fit 2009 GS450h. I've been told that the part number PTR02-30090 will fit GS450h which I believe is what most people installed. However, the latest part number PTR02-30101 will not. Most sellers only carry the latter one now so I have hard time finding 30090. Can someone please confirm this issue for me? Thank you.

Sincerely, Calvin

Can any GS450h owners chime in on this? Is there anyone on the board with F-sport sway bars installed on a GS450h? I have been reading through multiple threads with no direct answer. It seems that the GS450h guys are installing parts not designed for the car.

I.e springs etc. I do worry about the weight distribution differences. With the Tanabe NF and DF I believe those are rated for GS350's therefore, by throwing them on a GS450h this would be exactly like hauling passengers all the time. Have there been any negative results from driving on springs not designed to handle the extra weight?


I believe the difference between the part numbers is for AWD vs RWD applications. RWD applications should fit gs450h cars.

Just installed ptr02-30101 and experience no issues so far. Ordered from Sewell lexus from e-bay and the ZD bushings were in the package. It looks as if Sewell opened, took the AB bushings out, and replaced with the updated ZD bushing. This required no communication, as they sell it in this manner. Very happy with the results!
