I'm looking at buying front sway bar bushings for my '84 GT. I measured the sway bar and it came up 1 9/32". I went on Summit and went to order some but found that they come in 1 1/4", 1 3/8", 1 5/16". I was going to order the 1 1/4" because it's just 1/32nd smaller than what I measured and I would rather have it be tight than loose. I was wondering what some of your guy's thoughts might be. I may have measured wrong and if I did it would have been because the calipers were on the bar crooked, which would make my measurement larger than what it should be which is another reason I'm going smaller.
Also, what is the advantage to a greaseable poly bushing?
daily driver gotta keep the swaybar.... so any thoughts on MY situation... don't really care about anyone's opinions on keeping it or ridding the car of it...
Alright damnit!!! I'm not asking for suggestions on what to do with it... just asking what size people think it is based on my measurements.... don't post if you don't have an answer to my question... it's a daily driver and I need to keep the handling stock... if I wanted it to feel faster I'ld buy a speedo gear that made the speedometer move faster... Otherwise just answer the question please...
