Has anyone had trouble finding the right size for the middle bushings on the front sway bar?

My Brackets are part number 944-343-731-01 and the bushings that I need to replace are 951-343-794.0 (then there is an 8 in a small circle). I have ordered two set of bushing from Lindsey Racing and Ebay and neither set fits in bracket, all are have too small of a diameter.

I don't think that is the right part number.

What year and make is your car?

What diameter front sway bar do you have?

Everything you need is available here: http://garage.ideola.com/prod-SuspensionUpgrades.html

Sorry, didn't notice it was in your sig.

The 924S had two options for front sway bar: 20mm and 23mm. If you still have the original sway bar, then you need two of one of these part numbers, depending on what size bar is on your car:
477.411.053.G = 20mm
477.411.053.J = 23mm

Both available at the link above or send me a PM for $10 per pair + shipping.

Thanks Ideola! Was looking on your site, the Stiffener Brackets for Front Sway Bar look cool. Do they come with the bushings and is it $40 for the pair or each?

BTW My sway bar is 23mm

The stiffener brackets don't need or use bushings. The triangulate the OEM "L" bracket (that connects the main sway bushing to the frame spar) to the steering rack in order to reinforce the OEM bracket.



The image merely depicts how the stiffener attaches to the OEM L-bracket / bushing holder assembly. Price is per pair.
