MAN Stabilizer Bar Bushing 81437220068

The stabilizer bar bushing is a small but mission-critical component in the suspension system of MAN heavy-duty trucks. Mounted between the anti-roll (stabilizer) bar and the chassis bracket, the MAN stabilizer bar bushing 81437220068 controls body roll during cornering, isolates road-induced vibration, and protects the bar from metal-to-metal contact. For MAN TGA and TGS fleets operating across long-haul European and North American routes, a worn anti-roll bar bushing translates directly into reduced handling stability, clunking noise over bumps, and accelerated tire wear. Selecting an OEM-grade stabilizer bushing such as part 81437220068 keeps a MAN truck safe, quiet, and compliant.

Technical Specifications & Performance Advantages

Part number 81437220068 is a rubber-bonded stabilizer (anti-roll) bar bushing engineered for the MAN TG-range, primarily the TGA and TGS platforms. It belongs to the stabilizer bushing kit family that also includes related OEM references 81437220069 and 81437220080, and cross-references to Febi 24445.

Structure & Construction

• Bonded rubber sleeve design that wraps the stabilizer bar and seats into the chassis bracket, eliminating direct steel-on-steel contact.

• Split or solid profile depending on mounting position (top/outer, lower front/rear), allowing precise clamping force around the bar.

• Profiled outer geometry matched to the OEM bracket to prevent walking, rotation, or play under torsional load.

Material

• High-grade NBR / natural rubber compound formulated for commercial-vehicle suspension duty, balancing damping comfort with control stiffness.

• Optimised Shore A hardness to deliver OEM-equivalent roll resistance while absorbing road inputs.

• Resistant to ozone, ageing, oil splash, and the wide temperature range (-40°C to +100°C) typical of European and North American operations.

Performance Advantages

• Restores OEM body-roll control and steering precision in TGA/TGS suspensions.

• Suppresses NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) and eliminates the characteristic clunk of a worn bushing over bumps.

• Long service life: rubber stabilizer bushings typically last 80,000–120,000 km depending on load and road conditions.

• Manufactured under IATF 16949 quality controls with full OEM cross-reference traceability.

Reference Data

Note: confirm the bar diameter and bracket dimensions (outer diameter × inner diameter × height) against your vehicle before ordering, as MAN stabilizer bushings vary by axle and model year.

FAQ

What vehicles does stabilizer bushing 81437220068 fit?

It is designed for the MAN TG-range, principally the TGA and TGS heavy trucks. Because MAN used several stabilizer bushing variants across axles and model years, always verify the OEM number and physical dimensions against your specific chassis before purchase.

How do I know my stabilizer bushing is worn?

Common symptoms include a knocking or clunking noise over bumps, increased body roll and sway during lane changes or cornering, vague steering feel, and uneven or accelerated tire wear. Visible cracking, deformation, or play in the bushing confirms replacement is due.

What is the difference between OEM 81437220068, 81437220069 and 81437220080?

These three numbers belong to the same MAN stabilizer bushing kit family and are often supplied together. They typically denote different positions or dimensional variants within the same assembly, so confirm the exact position you require.

Is your bushing rubber or polyurethane?

The standard 81437220068 is supplied as an OEM-equivalent rubber compound for comfort and noise isolation. Polyurethane options offer firmer control and longer life and can be produced on request for fleet or performance applications.

Can you guarantee OEM fitment and quality?

Yes. Our parts are manufactured under IATF 16949 controls and validated against OEM cross-references including Febi 24445. We provide dimensional drawings and samples so OEM and aftermarket buyers can verify fit before volume orders.

What is the typical service life?

Rubber stabilizer bushings generally last 80,000–120,000 km depending on load, road quality, and climate. Replacing both sides as a set is recommended for balanced handling.

Do you offer custom branding or packaging?

Yes. We support OEM/ODM private-label packaging, custom Shore A hardness, and bespoke part marking for distributors and aftermarket brands.

What are your MOQ, lead time, and Incoterms?

MOQ, pricing, and lead time depend on volume and customisation. We export worldwide on EXW, FOB, or CIF terms. Contact us with your target quantity for a formal quotation.
