This is my brain on drugs!!

I pulled out my entire front end today. I'm cleaning out all the undercoating and painting it. Here's my question....the largest sway bar bushings PST makes are 34mm, but my sway bar is 36mm, what can I use to bore it out that extra 2mm??
Also how do I post pics here?? I want to put up some pics of how my rear came out.

The only way I have heard is to use sandpaper and take the extra 2mm out.

Check out Guldstrand. I bought 36mm bushings from them years ago. www.guldstrand.com

Good question on the pic posting. I have a couple to put on here of my failing rear-end, but not sure how to put them up!

You can't squeeze them in? A small drum sander might do the trick.
