Stabilizer Bar Diameters

[sport2004]

For those of you who may have upgraded F and R stabilizer bushings as part of a suspension job, how did you figure out the diameters?

I am seeing a least two different sizes for both ends (F 26, 29mm, R 19, 21mm)...any input appreciated.

Take a digital caliper and measure the bar where the bushing sits.

Also, the OE rear bushing has the diameter stamped into it on the side (if its still legible). Maybe the fronts do too. I didn't check but for sure saw 19 on my rear bushings.

Thank you, I will check. I don't have a caliper, but I did print out a measuring tape from a website, that will work if I can do it right. It is odd that when you are sorting through parts on a vendor's web site, they list different sizes without any info on which is needed.

I did call a dealer and they said with the last 8 characters of the VIN, they can look up the part numbers needed, and did confirm more than one choice. But, he also said the actual diameters are not listed, at least not before gong to aspecific part. I wasn't comfortable asking for further detail, not having an interest in ordering from the dealer parts dept.
