Default Rear sway bar bushing replacement '00 Blazer 4X4

Alright. I've been on the rampage trying to get my shocks, control arms, sway bar bushings and a few other things done to my baby before the cold and snow comes. I've got the front end done but I need a lil help with suggestions. I want to replace the rear sway bar bushings but there are 2 different types to choose from for my '00 S-10 Blazer LT. Eye to Eye and Stud to Eye. I can't seem to find any info on the difference nor which I should use. Every site I come across shows both as a usable solution for the polyurethane kits. Any ideas as to which one I need to go with? Outside replacing the differential cover, this is the last of work I need to do to her. I am going nuts here lol

Not a clue as to what you mean by those descriptions! There should only be one type of bushing,which are very easy to change! But,as I haven't changed out those on my 97 Jimmy-I am at a loss to decipher this; unless one means a pass-thru type bushing,or a bushing that mounts up to a stationary (frame) mount! I feel that this is what is meant!

I have no idea. Prothane seems to be nearly the only manufacturer of those bushings. Their own site lists both those possible kits for the rear swaybar links. Figuring this out is harder than finding diversity in an Ambercrombie and Fitch catalog. 8-P

There's either this http://www.energysuspensionparts.com...asp?prod=71139

Or this http://www.energysuspensionparts.com...asp?prod=71175

Unless either one will work, they're just designed differently? *shrugs in confusion
