Sway bar Size

[JSIL1]

Am I to assume that the easiest way to know the sway bar size is to measure it?

if your car is stock im sure it has a 21 or 23 bar up front and a 19 rear

All V8 SHO's have a 22mm front bar stock, and a 19mm rear bar stock.

Cool, now I can go order me some bushings. much obliged

I am reading that the Moog are rubber, do they not have a polyurethane ones?

 

[Wess]

Go to http://www.shonutperformance.com he has TPR bushings

 

[Mr. SHO]

Get the Moog TPR bushings from RockAuto. They are like $10/pr and they are the best bushings available.

All Moog and NAPA bushings are TPR, as are most TRW bushings (look for "TANAPA" in the mold of the bushings -- that mean's they are TPR).

 

[Porkchop]

oh they have 22 and 19 chris....

If you're replacing bushings, why not upgrade the sway bars to get better handling?

The 24/26 combo works great on my Gen III Sable, and TPR bushings are certainly the way to go!

Need $$$

 

[godspunk32]

You can pick them up cheap. Heck, my buddy Ian and I grabbed a 24/26 combo from a JY for $20 and a couple of hours with rusty subframe bolts ('89 SHO w/out recall). The bushings are about $30 total, so you're looking at like $50 to get an awesome upgrade. You have to all but remove the sway bars from teh car to change the bushings anyway, might as well spend a few extra bucks and improve handling, big time!

What kinda ***** would make those? Next thing you know, you'll be telling me that V8's need their cam bearings welded.....

 

[Porkchop]

Ya know .... I knew something wasn't right when Chris said I needed my blinker fluid changed

No, no, no! That's only for the V6 cars, and only if you're under 18 and your mommy won't let you go to ROTB because she needs the car to get to her job at the strip joint!
