Any mechanics here? Sway bar bushings

[500x]

Hi

Just took a couple of pics of my sway bar bushings. If there is any mechanics on here could you tell me visually how they look vs what you'd expect?

Looks more like an anti roll bar bush to me…

Looks fine.

Look fine to me, but then I’m not American

I’m not even sure if the Americans actually need their oddly named sway bars as they don’t tend to have any corners.

OK then, anti roll bar.

[andy43]

Honestly that looks brand new.

Looks fine: I wonder if we have to replace these more often in GB because of the absurd number of humps and bumps in our roads, as well as corners. These annoyances in our roads ( which idiots ignore, anyway) also result in replacements of drop links, shock absorber mounts , broken springs, etc. Whoever used to hear on a regular basis of broken springs?

Just two of the many twisty roads I've driven:

Coronado Trail

Deal's Gap

I think there’s also a quality issue with stuff like springs and bushes nowadays - springs rusting to the point of failure within a few years shouldn’t be a thing.
