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.

FRONT 18mm

REAR 16mm

No, it looks like a hooker put her acid vag on your hood. Acid vag = bigger problem than a few dings.

Having the rear dampers harder for more traction makes sense, since the strut should rebound more quickly, thereby aiding the return of full contact patch for the tire.
