I have checked with jegs and summit and performance suspension, and carparts.com and just about any other of the popular car parts places and no one seems to carry 36mm front and 23mm rear bushings.. Please help!

I was just about to post this myself. Where Does one find 36mm sway bar bushings? I have looked everywhere I can possibly think of. I thought Internet Racers Supply used to have them but I went to their site and they no longer do.

 

Guldstrand (http://www.guldstrand.com) supposedly has 36mm front bushings. Are you sure your rears are 23mm and not 24mm? Those ones you should be able to find just about anywhere.

 

Aperion is right, thats where I got mine
My rear bushings are 25mm, used the
greasable ones from energy suspension.

Well if the article that I read on this website about my car is correct then I either have 21mm or 23mm. I had gotten a measuring tape that only measured inches (couldn't find anything else at the time) and it only measured diameter. It came out to be larger than 7/8 and less than 15/16. Using a converter I came up with 7/8 = 22.225mm and then 15/16 = 23.8125mm. So using logical deduction and the article I read which said that I have either 21mm or 23mm(https://www.thirdgen.org/newdesign/articles/heritage.shtml) I chose 23mm. When I measured the front I came up with a little larger than 1 3/8. Which is as large as the tape goes. So with my handy converter 1 3/8 = 34.925 and then using that article which said that I have either 34 or 36, I chose to go with 36 because it measured larger than 1 3/8.

Thanks for the contact. I went and ordered the bushings from guldstrand. The sad part is that they are out of stock and won't get any more for 2 weeks That sucks. Oh well.

Theory Q! Say I measure a front sway bar, and it's 34.8 mm. Does this mean the 34mm bushings should be bought, or the 36 mm? I imagine the 34mm ones, it's probably better to be a bit tight than a bit loose. But I know too tight isn't good either, because of binding. Is the tightness mainly determined by how hard the bracket for the bushing is tightened?

I think you misread what I wrote I said that it is 34.925 not 34.8 and I also said that it was a little larger than 1 3/8. I only referenced 1 3/8 because it is the largest size that the measuring tape has. I have since remeasured and found another measuring tape that has millimeters. But it only goes up to 35mm and the sway bar is still larger than the tape but long enough to constitute (or assume) that it is 36mm.
