The rear stabilizer bar on the GX460 runs through two chassis bracket liners that hold the bar in position and allow it to rotate as the rear suspension cycles. As the factory rubber in these brackets ages, it cracks, compresses, and loses its grip on the bar, producing lateral bar movement, rear-end rattling over bumps, and progressively vague body roll response on cornering. The ENG8.5158R replaces both OEM rubber rear bracket liners with Energy Suspension's Hyper-Flex polyurethane compound, restoring proper rear stabilizer bar retention and sharpening rear body roll control without any change to bar setup or ride height. Designed for all 2010-2022 Lexus GX460 configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnergy Suspension ENG8.5158R Hyper-Flex polyurethane rear sway bar bushing set for 2010-2022 Lexus GX460\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces both factory rubber rear stabilizer bar bracket liners that cause rattling and imprecise body roll control as they age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHyper-Flex polyurethane maintains proper bar retention, outlasts OEM rubber, and resists heat and ozone degradation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull-floating design allows proper bar rotation without binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed color; black version available separately as ENG8.5158G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in USA by Energy Suspension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYear Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2010-2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLexus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGX460\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number (MPN)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.5158R\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Suspension\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHyper-Flex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear Sway Bar Bushing Set\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHyper-Flex polyurethane\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePosition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear stabilizer bar chassis brackets (both sides)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2010-2022 Lexus GX460\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProp 65\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e703639124498\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Hyper-Flex polyurethane rear sway bar bushings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnergy Suspension grease packet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout Energy Suspension\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnergy Suspension has manufactured Hyper-Flex polyurethane suspension components in the United States since 1983. Based in San Clemente, California, Energy Suspension produces application-specific bushing sets, body mounts, sway bar bushings, and supporting hardware for thousands of domestic and import vehicle applications. Their Hyper-Flex compound is formulated to deliver significantly longer service life than OEM rubber while maintaining handling precision appropriate for street use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Energy Suspension 8.5158R?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Energy Suspension 8.5158R is the Hyper-Flex polyurethane rear sway bar bushing set for the 2010-2022 Lexus GX460 in red. It replaces both factory rubber rear stabilizer bar bracket liners with polyurethane bushings that restore proper rear bar retention, eliminate rear-end sway bar rattle, and sharpen rear body roll control on aging GX460s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat years of Lexus GX460 does the 8.5158R fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Energy Suspension 8.5158R fits the 2010-2022 Lexus GX460. It does not fit the GX470 (2003-2009), which uses a different rear suspension and stabilizer bar configuration. Confirm your year before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat causes rear sway bar rattle on the GX460?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRear sway bar rattle on the GX460 most commonly originates from two sources: worn rubber bracket bushings (the mounts on the chassis) or worn end links. The ENG8.5158R addresses the bracket bushings. If rattle persists after replacing the bracket bushings, inspect the rear sway bar end links, which are a separate wear item and not included in this kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 8.5158R require any special tools?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Rear sway bar bracket bushing replacement is a basic hand-tool job. The bracket bolts are accessible from underneath the vehicle. No press is required as this is a clamp-style bracket design. The job typically takes under an hour with the vehicle on jack stands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eShould I replace front and rear sway bar bushings at the same time?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. On a high-mileage GX460, both the front and rear sway bar bracket bushings degrade at a similar rate from the same environmental and use factors. Replacing both at the same time with the Energy Suspension 8.5157R front set and 8.5158R rear set restores the full stabilizer system and prevents having to return for the second axle shortly after completing the first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ENG8.5158R include grease?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The ENG8.5158R includes an Energy Suspension grease packet. Apply grease to the inside bore of each bushing before installation to ensure proper bar rotation and prevent squeaking. Use only polyurethane-compatible grease. Petroleum-based greases will degrade the polyurethane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 8.5158G (black) the same as the 8.5158R (red)?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Energy Suspension 8.5158G and 8.5158R are the same rear sway bar bushing set in different colors. Construction, compound, and fitment are identical. G is black, R is red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan I install the ENG8.5158R without removing the rear sway bar?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn most cases, the rear sway bar bracket bushings can be replaced without fully removing the sway bar from the vehicle. Loosening or disconnecting the end links provides enough slack to rotate the bar out of the bracket and slide the new bushing into position. Full bar removal is typically not required but depends on the vehicle's specific rust and clearance conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLift and safely support the rear of the GX460 on jack stands with the suspension at a comfortable working height.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocate the two rear sway bar bracket housings on the rear subframe or chassis, one on each side of the stabilizer bar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoosen or disconnect the rear sway bar end links on both sides to provide slack in the bar if needed for bushing access.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the two bolts securing the sway bar bracket to the chassis on one side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the old rubber bushing.
