Oh, and no. I’m not the original owner. But it really doesn’t look like an aftermarket.

Ya, my bushings are completely round. The replacements I bought are the “usual” flat-one-side.
so does anyone out there have any brackets for sale that’ll fit my 28mm thick sway bar (and my new replacement MOOG bushings]? So that I can replace my bushings? (Able to ship to Toronto, Canada).

I’ve never had to add sway bar-locks to anything I’ve owned before.
Where does someone look for/buy those? Good ones. Being in Canada, aftermarket places are tough..but I’ll still take any suggestions.

While changing my struts this weekend, one of the studs that holds the front sway bar to the frame now spins freely. It's like the weld on the stud broke. Maybe someone had the same thing happen and MacGyvered a fix like RocketMan is talking about? My sway bar is now loose on the one side and not sure how to fix it.

Just saw this post because I ran into the same problem on my 2003 Marauder. I am rebuilding the front suspension on the car and I went to replace the bushings on the front sway bar. The brackets and rubber bushing are solid all the way around the bar. There is no way to take the bushings or bracket off the sway bar without cutting it. I am replacing the front sway bar with an Adtco front sway bar. Hope this helps anybody in the future.
Here is a post from when I upgraded the Addco rear sway bar bushings to greaseable ones.

My 03 MM same way - only way to remove the bushings is to cut the bracket...which I have not done.
'03 Silver Birch. Stock rebuilt 4.L 32V DOHC, V7-JT blower w/ADTR racing supercharger kit, Shift kit in transmission, stainless works long pipes and cat backs, Ridetech coil-overs front, shocks in back (ADTR kit). Rebuilt calipers, upgraded front rotors, OEM Mercury wheels, [boost, oil P, WB fuel/air, and fuel pressure] gauges. Build duration was Dec 2019 to Mar 2022. 8 rib serp belt upgrade i/p.
Anybody come up with another part # to replace the discontinued front sway bar bushing mount bracket bolt 3W1Z-SE490-AA? Found two other part numbers that look the same 6W1Z-SE490-AA AND N806729-S436?
