Was greasing my zerks last weekend on my newly purchased 1996 LS4x4and noticed one of the front sway bar end links was totally broken! I thought this might be an opportunity for an upgrade to Energy Suspension sway bar kit- poly links, new bolts and front greaseable bushings. I was trying to figure out what diameter my sway bar was from the RPO codes. I think I remember a "performance" suspension option from the window sticker, which might allude to the front sway bar diameter - ? I also have a rear sway bar if that helps.

Anyone know if I can determine what front sway bar diameter I have from the RPO codes in the glove box or option list on the window sticker? Thanks! -Mike

 

I do not know if you can find this out from the RPO codes...

You should either have a 28mm (~1.1") or 33mm (~1.3") front sway bar. IIRC, if you have the rear sway bar, then you should have the larger front sway bar.

 

Thanks Kyle, makes sense. I will def. measure before I buy, I was just curious if there was a way to find out on paper. BTW what does IIRC stand for? Thanks, Mike

 

No problem

And IIRC == If I Remember Correctly

 

FYI, I actually got around to measuring the front sway bar diameter near the end link (with my sweet 0.99 harbor freight plastic slide caliper!) and it measured 28mm.
