The Torsion/Sway Bar has 2 Bushings were it pivots on the Chassis and there is 2 downet shaped rubber Bushings on each side where the Sway Bar goes through the Upper Control Arm.

It is also common for the Sway Bar Tips to have rust issues so they need to be inspected.
If they break off there is a repair for that.

If the Ball Joints in the Upper Contol Arms are no good the Whole Arm needs to be replaced.

If you have time to do so it is better to remove and inspect the parts and then order what you need.
