1/17/2021 - resurrecting to ask new question.
Had the fuel tank out to replace the fuel line in the tunnel. From that I could see the front sway bar. Interestingly, the passenger side was connected and the driver side is not connected. In a box of parts that was with the car I found the drop link for the driver's side. It, however, is missing the cap and bolts to attach it to the bar. Does anyone know where I can get the piece to fit this part? Size of the bolts? Thank you. |

That is an awful lot of front bar at 19mm. Stock was 15mm. I was wondering how big it was when I first saw the photos.
Like understeer? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Somewhat joking since I have no idea what you have going on at the rear of the car. Unless you have some seriously stiff rear springs and a rear anti-roll bar (ARB) way bigger than stock inducing a lot of rear oversteer, that is a lot of front bar. It's all about tuning to driver preference so if you like it, it's all good! Given the nature of the bar, I don't think you'll find rubber bushings. Rubber would be too thin between the outer tube and the ARB to provide much isolation. Likewise rubber won't last long due to thin wall thickness available for the bushing. If your Delron bushings are usable, stay with them. If they are shot a machine shop can turn up a set easily.
