What are the white bushings made of??

I see these big white bushings under the car. Looks like antiroll bushings! Are they ruber or that polyurethane stuff. Are they that easy to replace? It looks like just one bolt per side.

Which bushings are you talking about, and where are they?

I've spent a lot of time under my 99 Pro and I have no idea what you're talking about.

I look at the back of my car! By each rear wheel, I see big white things connected to rods. (Perhaps stabalizer links!!!)

I know what your talking about but I don't know what it's called, or what it's made of.

Yes they are highly visible!

The question was, are they easily removed and replaced. Just doing research ahead of time , so that when these parts need to be looked at, that I can replace them
