Sway bar metric conversion ?
Does anyone know what conversion 36mm is in inches? Or maybe the conversion equation? I have a caliper to measure inches but not millimeters and I am making a trip to the junkyard tomorrow. Thanks.

Thats funny I just used that conversion to find out how wide a front tire of a Corvette CR5 would be if it were converted to street tire measurements. A 275 (mm) wide tire is 10.8 inches wide. The C5R front wheels are HUGE. Goodyear Racing Eagle 25X12 on 18" BBS forged magnesium 1 piece center lock wheel.

I feel like I am getting kinda air headed. I knew how to convert the tire diameter to inches but couldn't figure out how to convert the sway bar.
