okay.. this is getting to be rather annoying. Either my truck is the only Nissan Hardbody in the world that has 23 mm Bushings , or Energy Suspension can't get anything right for these things.. I purchased set # 7.5109 and I received the 20mm bushing set and the end links. The set is the right set, but the dimensions of the bushings and the length of the bolt for the end link is completely wrong for this application. First of all.. the 4x4 model of this truck has a built in hanger for the sway bar bushings.. second.. why would a 2WD version of this truck utilize a larger sway bar than the 4x4 model? I would say that parts from the 23mm kit should go in the 20 mm kit that is listed for the 4x4 model. Honestly.. I don't think anyone at energy suspension gives a rats ass that I purchased two kits and neither  fit properly... a true waste of my money and time.  The end links from set 7.5108 are correct for the 4wd model.. The Sway bar bushings of set 7.5108 are indeed 23mm but are made to mount to a 2wd model. The sway bar bushings of set 7.5109 is the 20mm set intended to go on the 4wd model. The 4wd model of the Hardbody uses a 23mm sway bar. The end links of set 7.5109 are not long enough. The 23mm sway bar bushings fit the bar but don't sit in their mounts.. The 20 mm bushings sit in their mounts, but the bar is too big. My truck is 100% stock, and unmodified until I got it.  The sets are all mixed up. Thanks to this little mix up.. I have wasted valuable time, gas, and money because of this. I think all in all I have had to wait a total of 9 days since I have had to special order each set I get.
