The correct part number for the 05+ WRX/STi whiteline steering rack bushings is KSR205. There is no KSR206 part number for 05+ WRX/STi. I just looked into our website and found the part number was entered incorrectly. I have edited the part number on our website.

Sorry about the confusion.

Hey. I was wondering if you guys carried rear sway bar bushings. I am not sure how thick my sway bar is though. Going to need the bushings for a GC chassis.

I got it from Rau. He says it was a JDM one. It is kind of stock looking. I figure it'd be off a JDM WRX. 20mm I think.

if these are the OEM STi rear swaybar, then dealership would be your best bet.

Whiteline sells 20mm bushings too but they are $30 or so for a pair.

Thanks

Hey Cal,

Thanks for the help. I hear the stock bushings are really crappy though. Probably should get some quality bushings instead. Are you guys open today (Friday)? I can drop by and figure out/buy bushings. The RSB is in my trunk. The guys and I pulled it off because it was making a clunking sound.

hey guy..

sorry about today.. i forgot to tell you the bushings are special order from Whiteline.

From what I saw when you brought the bar in, it looks like 18mm or 20mm.. I will email whiteline and see how fast they can get us the bushings.

Thanks. I'll ask Rau to see what size it is. I'll get back to you guys to confirm.

20mm. I called it in about two weeks ago. I was the one with the 20 mm bushings for a GC application. I forgot who took my call, but I was asked to drop a PM with my name and number.

Just wondering if you got the bushings in yet. I'll be back this weekend for the GST dyno day. Was hoping I could grab those.

darkonion <--- doesn't like body roll due to the RSB sitting in the trunk instead of being installed
