front sway bar end bushing size????

[dohcfiend]

what are the size of those end bushings on a dohc w-body? they do not look like the 34mm middle ones.

[SappySE107]

23mm I think. Its been so long...

[HayesPerformance]

for the 3.4 DOHC


Front is

24mm on the outside - Energy Suspension #9.5160

and

34mm on the inside - Energy Suspension #9.5167
(its a 33mm, thats what they use cause they don't make 34mm)

[dohcfiend]

you read my mind

[dohcfiend]

while i am at it, are there any ES control arm bushings out there?

and 7/8 rear sway bar bushings???

[pwmin]

unaware of CA bushings.

Rear outer sway bar bushing/bracket (have to drill out holes some): 9.5158
rear inner you cant get from ES, you have to use brickyard monte carlo bushings (they had a 7/8" bar): 10270253

[dohcfiend]

im have an addco rear sway bar but haven't installed it yet. it seems to use 22mm bushings but i just need to find the endlinks. i'll probably just take one to an auto parts store and match something up.

[pwmin]

yep, 22mm or 7/8". they arent really end link per sey. my local auto zones carry 7/8" es bushings/brackets in stock as well as some other sizes. what are you going to use for the inners?

[dohcfiend]

34mm ones from ES. i broke down and ordered every one i need from summit.

[pwmin]

i was actually asking about the inners for the addco bar

[dohcfiend]

22mm or 7/8 bushings.

[pwmin]

so, youre going to hack up your factory brackets to make them work? i would just get the brickyard 7/8" bushings. if you hack them up like in the addco instructions, they will break.

[dohcfiend]

i haven't installed them yet but i was under the impression the 7/8 bushings would fit into the addco brackets, if not i think they came with brackets.

[pwmin]

the ones they provide are in a d shape to fit in the brackets they provide. i guess you might be able to round them off with a bench grinder and get them to fit in your stock brackets. i wouldnt do what they recommend in the instructions. youll see what im talking about

[dohcfiend]

actually, i won't i bought it used w/no instructions . i have't gotten around to installing it or the bushings yet but i am sure once i do, what you have said will probably make perfect sense to me then.
