Default Sway Bar ID

After checking at the local dealer's parts counter for the pieces needed to add a rear sway bar to the FE1 suspension, I'm now a bit confused.

IIRC, I saw on the GM parts computer monitor 3 different sway bars for suspensions available for a 2014. They were designated as FE1, FE2, and FE3. Other sources, such as CF and Vettespecs, show FE1, FE3, and FE4.

I have no problem understanding there are 3 different systems, but would like to know the actual front and rear diameters of each system sways along with the respective part numbers. Adding the spring rates and part numbers, along with the info for shocks, would make a great sticky for C7 suspensions.

So far, the dealer shows PN 20966781 and PN 22936510 as sways, but didn't seem to have any way to determine if these were for the Z51 with or without F55.

From Modshack's DIY thread:

Front stock bar 7.85 lbs, 26.2mm (hollow)
Front Z51 bar 7.95 lbs, 28mm (hollow)

Rear Z51 bar 6.9 lbs, 26.5mm (hollow) + 2.2 for new hardware.
Rear stock bar = None

Net increase in weight 9.2lbs
Here's a thread with a lot of info and part numbers and a link to Modshack's DIY thread:

Thank you Rick. You always amaze me. I searched for 30 minutes and didn't find either of these.
