they are Energy suspension P#'s

Front inner: 9.5173
Front outer: 9.5159

The bar is 34mm and the bushing is 35mm on the inners and the bar is 22mm and the bushigns are 23mm on the outers...I got the 1mm bigger ones because they are the only size  close enough that were greasabel.....on the test ride, there were no problems and uppon installation, everything looked fine.

I'm very impressed w/ the quality of the bushings and the mounts.  Well worth the ~$32 total that it cost...free shipping from
http://www.energysuspensionparts.com/


I had an extra bar so i got it powdercoated grey....I now have my stock 34mm bar FOR SALE if anyone wants it.  PM me.


and yes, you HAVE to lower the rear subframe to get the bar out....not that hard to do...just takes an extra jack to hold the subframe from falling to the ground.


I noticed an imediate difference in steering response and the car wanting to turn in to a turn and not body roll...well worth the investment.

lol...i threaded the end a tad that way I could put a bolt in it to hang the bar on the PC line.

the bars must be hardened stock...cause i got about 3-4 threads in it before i felt the tap was going to snap.

IDK, I think its a common problem on the second gens. It just seems GM went cheaper on them.

Are ours tubular or solid?
