rear sway bar bushing size

[BostonJon]

Does anyone know the diameter of the bushings needed for the rear sway bar? I have an 05 V8 sport 4wd. I couldn't find an answer by searching. I'm rebuilding the entire rear suspension and see two options for the rear bushings - 17mm and 19mm.

I also see three sizes for the front - 26mm, 29mm, and 15/16". I cant imagine Toyota would have used a bushing measured in inches, but this converts to ~24mm.

Does anyone have any insight/

My 06 sport has 30mm front, and 21mm rear:

Read through that whole thread, lots of good info and options. You'll probably want to measure your bar diameters to confirm the size.

I have an 07 Sport. Mine measured 19mm. When I went to remove the rear bracket, the bolts would not budge. They are at a funky angle backed up to the fuel tank. I gave up. Its not worth snapping a bolt and having to drill it out. Not really interested in using a torch just inches away from the fuel tank either.

Good luck

thanks for the info. i'll see if i can loosen them with a standard wrench. my 4R spent most of its life in NV so the frame is still pretty pristine

rears will either be 21mm or 19mm. size is stamped on the bushing. no need to undo brackets or anything to see it.
