Front sway Bar questions?

I have an 86 Iroc-Z TPI. I took off my front sway bar and was wondering Is the sway bar hollow or solid? 36mm?

I think by '85, all front bars were hollow... someone correct me if I'm wrong!

Only the big 36mm bars are hollow. It reduces weight, but also reduces stiffness. Measure it to be sure what you have.
