I have searched, and searched. No clear answer as to the size of our stock sway bars, but I seem to see that they may be
F: 18mm and R: 16mm, can this be confirmed? Also, I see that the brand Prothane makes universal poly bushings. I hope you can see where I'm going with this. Will these fit? or is the length measurement off? Or Can anyone direct me to some that are known to fit? I would measure my bushings but they are disintegrated pretty badly to the point I am not sure I would get a proper measurement. Worst case scenario, I buy squishy OEM rubber replacements.

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

One thing I will suggest, and highly recommend doing is sanding down the sway bar. Clean it up and paint it, especially where the bushing contacts. Urethane creaks... I didn't clean mine off and OH MY GOD is it loud now lmao. I want to get a sticker for my window that says, "Yeah, I creak. But I'll destroy you in a corner."
The urethane on the rear bar makes a HUGE difference. When jacking my car up, I notice it then even. If I'm jacking up my front right tire where the jack is suppose to be positioned on the frame rail, the whole rear lifts with the front. the car will teeder lol. It's pretty awesome. I'm planning on doing the whole rear in urethane and then work on the front. I'm auto-crossing though. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles.
