Urethane bushings, the red ones ......if you can find them. That would be the way to go. If I had handy access to some, and they were not too expensive, I'd make that a standard replacement item on the vans I refurbish. adjustable anti-sway bars would be the real right way to go if fitting aftermarket ones. If anyone makes such a thing.
