sway bar sizes
#3
Sizes in diameter, the lenght is standard.
Stock are 30 mm front and 19 mm rear
1LE package are 32 mm hollow front and 21 mm hollow rear or 19 mm rear too.
Aftermarket: solid or hollow, some are designed for autocross. But it seems that 35 mm hollow front and 21 mm or 22 mm hollow rear are a perfect match with a better suspension performance in handle curves and cornerings.
If they come with poliurethane bushings the better.

30 or 32mm are stock sizes up front. 21mm was a 93 only option. Otherwise, hey are 19. SLP made a 35mm, but apparently was made of some exotic metal alloy called unobtainium expensivium

don't forget v6's
basic breakdown:
93-97 v6 = 30mm Front /17mm rear
98-02 v6 = 28mm Front /15mm rear
z28/base TA = 30mm Front /19mm rear
SS/WS6 = 32mm Front /19mm rear (except maybe verts in 93-97 and possibly 98-02)
Bilstein Ultra Firehawk = 35mm Front/21mm rear
and as mentioned 1le's only came with 21mm rears in 93

I don't recall any markings at all actually. It was finished just like any other factory bar. I saw a post in the local classifieds for a set of stock bars off of a firehawk, and remembered that he once posted somewhere saying that his car came with bilsteins. Had him measure it for me and it was a 35mm so I jumped on it. I don't think he really knew what it was. I actually didn't even know it was that special but it was such a good deal I had to buy it.

hahah I originally bought it to just resell and make a profit since I already had a 35mm front bar. I didn't even know it was hollow until I got it. It really doesn't seem too special, it's about the same weight as a strano bar.
