Default Front Sway Bar Bushings

I'm trying to find front sway bushings for my 79 L82. I got set of Moog K8204 from Advance auto, but they were too small. I then tried a set of Energy Suspension 9.5112Q bushings for 1 1/8 bar, but they are too big. What size is correct for this car?

Do you have the stock 13/16 bar?
If you do, you'll need the 21 mm bushings.
Go to eBay listing number 132153315949, only $6.99 and free shipping.
I just bought this same pair for my car. Good Luck!

take a set of open end wrenches or a tape measure/ruler and measure the bar nobody here knows whether the bar has been changed from factory.

Hadn't thought about the open end wrench method, but it apparently is a 7/8 according to that method.
