what are your EXACT swaybar diameters?
my rear bar measure 23.8 at the center and 23.5 at where the bushings go. these measurements are from a calibrated caliper so i know they're right. so i dunno if it's a 23 or 24mm bar.
is anyone else's measurement off like this? if so, what is the real measurement and what is it supposed to be? that might give me a clue as to which bar i have.
thanks

Again, I STILL say 24mm.
Use simple math and round up...24mm.
One millimeter isn't going to matter.

yeah i know i'm just stubborn i guess, and also it's good for knowing which bushings to get. i'm just gonna get the 23mm ones and then i'll know they wont be loose.

Are you getting poly bushings? If you try to put 23mm bushings on your 23.5-23.8mm bar you will have to beat them on with a big hammer!!! Poly bushings need a little clearance for the bar to move in them, thats why they need grease to lubricate them. If your getting stock rubber type it would work ok I guess.
