i was going to replace my front struts and springs and found out that the sway bar is rubbing on the passenger side and i dont know if its bent or just outta line so if someone has an old sway bar laying around that you know is straight could you please measure it from hole to hole (the hole for the sway bar link) and let me know or can you tell me where to find this info? thanks

 

Clamping a tape measure at one end, I get 43 7/8".

 

thank you where did you take the measurement from? middle of hole or outside edge?

 

middle to middle- (that way I could clamp one end of the tape to the sway bar)

 

For the front I got 43 3/4" going from center of endlink to center of endlink.

 

center to center i got 43 3/8" looks like i got a bent sway bar oh well time for an upgrade i suppose

 

The swaybar that I measured is a 36mm bar that I actually have for sale if your interested...

 

i would if i wasnt in canada and whats the stock bar diameter?

 

Many different sizes came stock. It depends on what kind of car you have and what some of the RPO codes are for your vehicle.

for the front, I think there was a 32 hollow, 34 hollow, 36 hollow, and a 34 solid (ultra rare... only on factory race cars)

for the rear, there was a 19, 21, 23, and a 24 (all solid). There is also an aftermarket 1" solid (25.4mm) bar that you can buy.

 

cool i always thought mine was solid but im assuming not lol its a 84 z28 any ideas on what ive got?

 

If it is hollow there will be two little holes near the endlinks. I think your vehicle would have 34/21, but I'm not sure... someone else can chime in here.

 

no holes by endlinks and measures in at 1 1/4" dont know what that is in mm 32-ish i think

 

Yes, that's 32mm.
