Front sway bar help

I ordered a 34mm front sway bar from my dealship part number 25861196 and the diagram shows its for a GXP with the end links connecting to the strut and it just came in and the bar is the style that connects to the control arm. On the parts screen it shows the correct bar I need so I dont know if the screen is wrong or what the deal is. Does anyone know if this is the right bar I need or the parts screen is wrong?
Thanks

It would help us if you told us what year/model you drive. Then it can be answered. Or, slide under your car and see how the current bar is mounted.
 
I ges I didnt state clearly enough, my bad. I have an 06 gt with the end links connecting to the strut. The one that came here is the style that connects to the control arm which is the wrong bar. I could get the other style LCA but id rather not spend all that money
 
Im guessing the front bar is solid because its only 20mm thick. What size is the comp g bar and is it also solid or hollow?

Gxp and comp g use the same 19mm hollow bar up front connected to the strut.
 
Parts screen shows GXP front sway connects to the LCA. My bar now is a 20mm, dont know if its hollow or solid. comp g is a 20mm probably solid. I see on part sites there is a 24mm bar as well as the 20mm but they show no P/N so idk whats what.
1) Can anyone confirm if the front sway bar with fe1 and fe2 is hollow or solid? (I have fe2)
2) Is the stock comp g front bar 20mm hollow or solid?
3) Any info on the 24mm bar?
 


Just an FYI the gxp sway bar connects to the strut not the LCA

See sway bar. Its not connected right now but it does connect to the strut

I really wish parts listings could get there **** together. Trust me I have a Gxp I've measured the stock which is 19mm sway connected via the strut with endlinks.I (measured with a caliper.) All Gxp share the comp g suspension minus the bilstein shocks. And the 24mm bar is a control arm mounted sway bar same with the 27 29 and 34
 
91paekave is correct. Our sway bars are 19mm. When I replaced my sway bar bushings with poly ones I bought 19mm bushings off of 91parkave's advice and they fit perfectly. There fore we definitely have a 19mm bar not what ever your parts listings say

Parts listings arent always correct. I can name three things that I found wrong in oreillys parts catalog that they have now corrected
 
Ok thanks you for all the info. It is exatcly what I needed. Im so tired of dealing with parts department. One last thing, a part number for the compg/gxp front sway bar?
 


Possibly. How much for parts and shipping and where are you sending from? I live in Winnipeg btw. If you need a postal code for estimating use r0g1n0
