    Okay, so first I'm kind of searching a "clunk" in the front end of my 2004 GP Comp G and figured i would start at something cheap to start ruling out what it could be (and also freshening up the suspension). So im trying to figure out what the size of the sway bar is, everywhere it just shows the 3 different sizes and not specific. Ive been searching all over and nowhere says anything specific on the size or what size to get.

    i just changed mine last week, theres 3 sizes moog offers. i have a dorman 33 mm bar, but all they sell is standard sizes, you can do a test fit at the parts store to see if it fits the bar right. i had the Small one at first, and had to swap it for the middle sized one.

    so nice to not have the clunk anymore.

    Do you have access to a caliper? Easiest way to get an accurate measurement.

    Unfortunately i don't. Also what else in the suspension might cause a "clunk" i know it sounds dumb, just so i can check it all once.

    SHould i just do all that (LCA, Strut mounts, Sway Bar bushings) at once? IS there any other bushings i might as well replace while in there? Also for the sway bar bushings and and other ones should i go with poly is there an advantage/disadvantage to it? Its' a daily driver with no mods and no plans to mod.

    poly should be just fine. i got the moog replacements, not poly but much firmer then the dorman crap that came with my bar.

    if your gonna do all that at once its best due to needing an alignment after your done.
