The smaller ones are very common , and the 28mm ones don't show up often , let alone new . Just figured I'd post it on here . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schardein Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Factory could be 24mm, 26mm, or 28mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Automan2164 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 That would have been a good score for someone. Once I picked up my first 28 MM bar at the yard, 'errything I owned XJ/MJ wise got one. Makes the whole thing feel noticeably tighter. I also did an aftermarket addco rear bar on my XJ before I sold it. Felt like a gokart. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuit Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Does anyone know if these sway bars have a part number on them, or maybe how much the real thing weighs? I picked up a sway bar at the junkyard that's 28mm in diameter, but I'm not so sure it's the genuine article. It came off a ~93 XJ Sport, so not normally the trim people say they come on.

Automan2164 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I started bringing a really cheap caliper with my in my yard bag for when I needed them. I plucked all my bars out of XJ limiteds of various years. http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=1292839&KPID=981061&cid=CAPLA:G:Shopping_-_Precision_Tools&pla=pla_981061&k_clickid=0ee28179-4ec1-dee8-fb21-00005b07ab2f&gclid=CjwKCAiA-KzSBRAnEiwAkmQ150agyuUKfiEPRIMfbxsJrKqLzOU1PvOsdz0dxJpAPNaCMCkRM8XdyBoCEjMQAvD_BwE Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I'm curious is because I noticed less change in the truck's body roll than I expected after installing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan2164 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hmm... Makes me wonder if the effect was amplified for me because along with the bar I also replaced the bushings each time... Maybe the new bushings amplified the effect because the old ones were shot. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went from my factory 24mm, to a 26mm, to a 28mm on my XJ. I drive a windy country road to work every day and noticed a slight improvement each time, but going from the 26 to 28 would be less noticeable than going straight to the 28 from 24, which is what I did on my MJ.

The only place I use poly bushings on anything is on the sway bars, both front and rear. I use them both for the bar bushings and the end link bushings. They make a very noticeable difference in the rigidity of the bar over the stock rubber bushings and work better for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still using rubber endlink bushings - agreed, that's probably taking away a lot of my improvement. I'll probably swap to poly bushings at some point.
