An SS or WS6 would be 32mm front/19mm rear.

Base V8 cars received the 30mm front/19mm rear.

1LE cars were 32mm front/21mm rear.

Wasn't there an option for a 35mm front....for some year or some option package or something? I could be wrong.... Otherwise, looks right!

Hmmm... I believe 3rd gens had a 35mm (or so) front bar, on some trim levels.

I'm not sure if there were any sway bar upgrades offered as part of the SLP suspension options, but that would be the only other possibility for a 4th gen.

I just did a search, looks like it's part of the "Bilstein Ultra Suspension" package or something offered on some Firehawks....interesting.

Only the Bilstein optioned cars got the 32mm. Non-optioned SSs got stock Z suspension.

That's the first time I've heard this, maybe something changed in the later years of the 4th gen SSs. I know for sure that the WS6 cars received the 32mm front bar, and I remember the part number for front sway bar bushings being the same for an SS....but that was back in 2000.
