Detailed Description

Dorman 540-597 is built as a direct-fit suspension stabilizer bar bushing kit for the 1997-1999 Dodge Dakota, front to control arm, with a 27.94 mm diameter bar. The rubber bushing design helps maintain stabilizer bar location and contact under normal suspension movement, supporting predictable front-end response. This part cross-references Delphi TD4570W and Mevotech Supreme MK7358 for the same application.

Common Repair Applications

• Front suspension clunking from worn stabilizer bar bushings
• Excessive play at the stabilizer bar mounting point
• Noise caused by deteriorated rubber bushings
• Reduced steering feel from loose front suspension components
• Service replacement for a worn OE-style bushing on Dodge Dakota front suspension

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify stabilizer bar diameter before installation to confirm the 28 mm bushing size matches the vehicle. Inspect the bar surface and mounting area for wear, corrosion, or deformation before assembly. Because no bracket is included, reuse or replace the existing bracket as needed during service.
