GSL-SE Sway Bar Question

So I have the entire front end torn apart putting in my all new Moog steering components and poly kit when I removed the front sway bar and I noticed my bushings in my poly kit are like half the size of the sway bar. Upon measuring the sway bar it came out to 23 mm in size. Any idea if this is normal for an SE or is this an aftermarket sway bar?

I may have just answered my own question, ReSpeed can't determine which car you have and since the front sway bars are different they just chose not to send it. I will contact Billy to get the right sway bar bushing for the front. If anyone is going to buy the hyperflex kit I think you need to leave a little comment on the order to let them know what kind of car it is so you get the right bushing.

That is odd. www.P-S-T.com makes you call them with the year of your 1st gen so they know which bushings to send you. Because of this, I had assumed that there must be a difference.... Strange!
