1995 E150 Suspension

I have a 1995 E150. In the front suspension ,I have a U shaped rod/bar, I would call it a sway bar, that bolts to each side of the frame then goes thru a bushing on each side of the axle. The bushings are worn and came out on one side. I would like to replace them but I don't know what to call them or the rod.
Also the rod goes into the bushings ,but there is no nuts, its more like a pin on the end.Is that the way the bar is suppose to be. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It's called an anti-sway bar. I don't know the exact name for the bushing at the end of the bars, but your local parts guy should be able to figure out what you are talking about. There are no nuts on the end of the bar.

I did mine years ago on my 93. I just asked for the sway bar bushings in the axle beams, and did not have a problem getting them. Not the REPLACING them part.... REAL PITA!!!. They are a press fit, and I had a heck of a time getting them in the beams. Ended up making a tool that fit around everything in the way, so I could tap them in.
