I finally got around to replacing the sway bar bushings today. I coated them lightly with silicone dialectric grease(to prevent squeaks) and I slapped them on. At first I wasn't sure if I noticed any difference but the noise seemed to disipate the longer I drove. I'm still not sure if it's completely gone but it certainly has been reduced significantly. My V has a little over 132,000 miles and I plan to replace the front sway bar links as well.

I DID notice several weeks ago that both of the outer tie rod end dust boots were split and oozing a little bit of grease. I'm gonna check them out this weekend to see if there's any play in the joints. I think they're still fine so I expect to just repack them with grease and install the new dust boots which arrived today.
