    Rear sway bar and rear subframe brace are suspension component and they got nothing to do with your rear brake system.

    Wearing uneven from caliper to caliper or wearing uneven on each caliper?, ie 1 pad wearing more then the other pad? If the later, then a caliper rebuild might be a good idea.

    Did you apply grease on the caliper slider when you install your pads?

    well basically my rear pads 1 side is wearing heaps more then the other side
    i took it to the mechanics to get it changed " brake pads" but im assuming so that they would grease it?

    he was like cos of the uneven wear i could get new bushes put in but its too expensive and he said the other alternative was to put a sway bar?

    You're mechanic is taking you for a ride if he's talking about brakes and swaybars having a connection with uneven pad wear...
