Default 240 Anti roll bar bushes

I'm trying to get hold of 21mm front anti roll bar bushes but so far been unsuccessful, tried online and a couple of motor factors. I've seen a few on ebay but they are mainly poly or ones that don't look right.

I've not had them off but they look like normal D bushes. eBay have these listed Here but I doesn't look correct, mine doesn't look like it has the knobbles as on the one listed

Has anyone got any suggestions to source them?

Thank you!,
Dan

is 21mm the stock antisway bar size? I dunno offhand. ah, VADIS shows 19.5, 21, and 23mm options

Volvo PN for the 21mm bushing is 1330185, they are like US$8 each at any dealer (probably special order, of course)

meh. IMO, poly is better for the sway bar.

which ever is cheapier... OEM or Poly. no aftermarket rubber for this.

Edit:/// I believe SAM also sells oem stuff...

Thanks for the replies.

I wouldn't of thought getting the bushes would be so tricky, obviously not a big seller.

Thanks for the part number aswell Pierce

Mine has done 175k miles and they are defiantly worn. When I removed the drop link there was play in the bar and the rubber has split slightly on one of the bushes.
