Bushing size question
So i bought the Spohn Sway Bar Set 1 5/16" front (solid) & 1" rear (solid) 4140 chrome moly sway bars. My bushings creak and sound horrible. I went to Hawks and wanted to pick up a set of greaseable bushings, but the measurements are in MM's. So I did the conversions and here they are.
Front = 33.3375 mm
Rear = 25.4 mm
For the front, they have the 32mm and the 34mm bushing sizes, which one should I choose?
For the rear, they have only up to 24mm, will that fit ok?
Thanks all

This should help you decide which ones to get.

Thanks 92sleeper, I ordered from TDS the greaseable 32mm front and 24mm rear poly-graphite bushings. I emailed hawks just in case and they said these sizes would fit fine. Does anyone use these bushings and how do they perform? Also, do they make any noise I know graphite makes much less noise then poly-urethane.
