Default Rear Sway Bar Bushing Installation Question

Hello all!

I am about to replace the sway bar end link bushings in my 1995 base coupe with a set of Prothane bushings. How do I find out the stock size of the rear sway bar? Is it something I can find out without physically measuring?

Also, I have read countless sway bar bushing threads just to gain knowledge before jumping into the project, but I am still an amateur when it comes to working on cars. Any good tips for this job?

Thanks!

The link below is a good reference for C4 suspensions.

It looks like you should have a 26mm front bar and a 24mm rear bar.

Good luck.

Why not just buy a cheap dial caliper? You should have one in the toolbox anyway.

Tighten a adjustable wrench on the bar then measure the wrench
