This is one avenue that confuses me, half the crowd says the bushing and bar twist as one and half say the bar rotates in the bushing.

Odd part is that on some cars I do find the sway bar bushings to have a cross hatch matrix cast in them to hold some lubricant to prevent squeaking, some are smooth. I use teflon infused silicone grease on them.
