LX40 Front Suspension

[tsdevane]

After a recent install of the Safe-T-Plus Steering Control, I was informed that the following items need attention:

A) Tie Rod Ends

Can any LX40 Owner kindly confirm that the correct part numbers are:
Meritor (Rockwell) #R230068-Left, #R230069-Right

B) Front Stabilizer Bar/Sway Bar Bushings

According to the attached illustration, I have identified the bushings are four each of items 6 and 8. I would be appreciative if someone would assist me with the respective part numbers. Thank you.

Edit: Timothy has since found that the information above, (with a Strikethrough), does not apply to his LX - Thank you for the feedback Timothy! J. Wyatt 9/20/2023

Oh, OK... that's interesting. I would want to try one set just to see if it happened to be bus specific. Thanks for the tip, Lee.

Lots of talk about the sway bar,some have removed it,some love it,some don't know they have one.
The bushings were deleted in 2001 and a different type of connector was used,no bushings to wear out.
Different mounts altogether.
I would not spend a lot of time searching for them.

Roger That. I did find this item mentioned in an old thread. For reference, would this have been the replacement?
