What Size Sway-Bar Bushings?

[Cranmaro99]

I know that on 2nd Gen Explorers the sway bars had different sized bushings and mounting locations based on the drive-train of the model.

Is there info laid out anywhere stating the size bushings I'll need to replace my front and rear bushings? (Not the end links). I just need stock-like replacements.

My Explorer is a 2001 5.0 AWD 4dr Limited model, if that helps.

jusr take an adjustable wrench and put it on the bar. then measure the opening to get the diameter.
