Anybody know right off of the top off their heads what the diameter of the stock 1998 front swaybar is? I know it is 1 5/16" or 1 3/8" but I can't tell for sure until I get an exact measurment. Just thought someone might know. Thanks for the help.

34 mm? 30 seconds and a tape measure/ruler and you could find out easily ;) Didn't they change to solid bars in 98? If its solid, it might be a 32 mm
 






34 mm. The hollow bars are 36 mm.
 






i thought the diameter of the 95-97 to 98-01 are the same except for the hollow part. oh well...
 






Uh, yeah, 30 seconds with a tape measure got me trying to figure out if it was 1 5/16" or 1 3/8".;)

So 34mm, that's what I needed to know for sure. Leave it up to Ford to use some goofy in-between size.
