Re: 1 7/16 sway bar bushing
Have the seller give you the outer dimensions of those bushings. I suspect they won't fit the stock GM sway bar bushing brackets. I recall a little over a year ago buying these bushings in an attempt to find a new supplier, since Guldstrand's supplier no longer wanted to make them in anywhere close to a reasonable quantity. The Moog bushings I rec'd did not fit the GM brackets. If the eBay supplier won't or can't supply you with the dimensions of the bushing, then make sure they have a return policy. I solved my supplier problem by buying Energy Suspension 34mm bushings and honing them to 36mm.
I know your original concern was the ID of the bushing. FYI 36mm = 1.417" so if these measure 1.437, they are roughly .020" larger.

I made the mistake in buying these bushings. They don't even come close to fitting in the bracket.
