25mm rear sway bar
Do these really exist?
Part Number?
Picture? Picture of bar being measured?
What year/ options required and cars did they come on?
I've heard people say these were a pontiac only part I've heard others say they were a 1le part, how about helping me get this straightened out once and for all.

This was the first appearance of 16" wheels on a third generation f-body. The 1500 15th Anniversary Trans Ams also included upgraded WS6 suspension with new 25mm rear sway bar vs the normal WS6's 23mm bar.
But I guess somebody could have easily hit the 5 key insted of the 4 key by accident. Understandandable, also did a search of the suspension form some people do claim to have a 25 mm stock rear sway bar, but I guess that too could just be incorrect measuring techniques. Anyway of closing this thread so that nobody need post about this issue again.

thats interesting, i had never seen that before. anybody have a 15th they would be willing to crawl under and measure to make absolutely sure. the mods would have to be the ones to close a thread, but im kinda curious now. i just remembered about a thread on the FAQ board that has all the sway bar info anyone could ever want, but it says nothing about a 25mm bar

I have heared from several sources that the 84 15th T/A came w/ a 25mm rear sway bar. Ive read this in vintage magazine articles/ reviews from 84, as well as the tech data on this site.
My 84 came w/ the 23mm rear bar. I will have to ask a friend of mine w/ a 15th to measure his.

I always thought all 25mm (more commonly referred to as 1") bars were aftermarket and were more drag race oriented than handling performance. That's a big bar for the rear!
