97-03 guys I'm running pacesetter headers any issues with the dorman bar and down pipes hitting I read some people flip the stock swaybar just wanted to make sure the larger dorman will clear if flipped
Thanks
Did my post confuse you? BLAME AUTOCORRECT!
When running Poly bushing is it recommended to also install sway bar lateral locks? I know i have seen them on at least one Grand Prix while doing my sway bar research.

Reading this over, im under the impression that 04 and 05 all had the same size front sway bar or is there something special to the comp g?
04/05 have a completely dif bar. You can use the dorman if you swap to 97-03 lcas and brackets
^ I was wondering the same thing. I'd assume their specs listed are just wrong or they measured themselves.
Odd. I measured the rear one on my 06 with a digital caliper, and got 17.4mm. but it's apparently hollow

Hey guys I have a stock (as of right now) 99 GT with about 260k on it. Pretty sure i had water getting into the engine cuz the coolant kept magically vanishing from my radiator and holding tank and after i let the old man play with it it wouldn't start anymore. swapping out the engine and tranny from my 1st car (about 90k) I put in the ditch about 10 years ago. Since I have the engine/tranny, out I am getting ready to replace the LCA's, sway bar, ball joints, tie-rod ends, and pretty much everything else that "needs" replaced while it is easy to get to. I have already replaced all four struts, disks brakes,hubs and rotors while it was still running and am getting ready to purchase the sway bar and LCA kit.
My question is this,Are the ZZP 38mm sway bars more for heavily mod'd boats that have been lowered and have fun pullys and junk? it's not that much more than a for the thicker bar, but I dont want to let my expensive taste come back to haunt me when im putting everything back together and i run into clearance issues or the holes on the end for the link be different dia. or the stud be to thin and snap from the thicker bar or something.... then I would have to hear from my old man what an idiot I am...he may be right...but still ...Any advice?? Thanks!!

That's what I was thinking as well. It just seems like almost all the products on the ZZP site for the 3800 series are catered more towards the GTP's and more "competition" vehicles. I'm not bad with a wrench, but I am nowhere near as experienced as some of you guys on here. If i'm gunna spend the money to buy new parts I figured I would go all out and get higher quality stuff rather than just replace with stock parts.I just didn't want to go overboard on expensive parts and regret not sticking to same size stuff when things started breaking or didn't fit since I was changing certain component sizes I've read through hundreds of these posts and threads and have retained some extremely valuable information from you guys. I wish I would have joined this site about 10 years ago. Thanks the quick responses!!
I'm with Scotty save some money and go with the dorman bar. Its really nice and a good upgrade over stock. Its 78$ on Amazon with bushings and endlinks although I would also get poly bushings and endlinks. You can find those on Amazon for about 20$ https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0026...crL&ref=plSrch

Here is a link to another post with a photo of a 2004 front anti-sway bar, which is connected to the front strut, not the Lower Control Arm. It appears to be either a 20mm bar.

I know this is an older thread but it looks like Moog now offers a 33mm front sway bar as well.
