Rear Sway is 18mm and I think Front Sway is 34mm

I seen that one.... It doesn't say what size the stock sway bar is, just the replacement upgrade, I don't know if it's the same size or not.... I want to order sway bar bushings and there are 4 different sizes to chose from. Thanks for the link as well as responce... They are hard to come by now days... Ty..mjclemm...

I don't think 34mm is stock. My upgraded solid one is 33mm and it was much bigger than the stock one I took out.

Easiest way it to get a digital caliper and measure it that way you know for sure you're getting the right one.

Thanks, not a bad idea, just didn't want to waste money on a caliper that I would only use one time...lol.. Also, though just maybe someone in this forum would know.... Guess not... Ill probly have to do what you said and buy one... Thanks for the idea, ill post what I find out that way someone else in my situation doesn't have to go buy something they will never use again.... Thanks..mjclemm...

I agree it's somewhere around 22-24. You could measure the circumference of the bar, and then back calculate the diameter.

I bought my caliper specifically for the same reason and I've used it for so many other things afterwards. Its a very handy tool to have, plus they are under $20 so you can't go wrong.

That is true, I used a big one to take some measurements for endlinks not too long ago, they can be handy.

I will agree, I'll have to end up buying the clipper and get the header nets.. I just figured out of all the people in this forum 1 would know the diameter of the sway bar... All us cool.. U thank you all for the input...Michael...
