Sway bar upgrade

[ftwultra]

ok.. ive heard 3 different stories now,
i have a 98 ultra with F41. what is the EXACT size of the sway bars? i was going to change bars but have since learned i have the f41 and will just do the poly bushings and links.
i was told front was 30mm. 22mm. 28mm.. which one is it?

thanks 🙂

Just a heads up......I recently replaced all springs,shocks/stuts,lower control arms,cv's,wheel bearings,inner/outer tie rods,etc... and I figured while I'm at it to upgrade the front sway on my 2000 sabre. My 2000 had the smushy comfort ride, with only a puny front sway.
After a little research I got the front and back from a Olds Aurora from the boneyard, great condition for $75. Olds has the 20mm in the back and the larger front. They even threw in the all the mounting brackets and rubber.
Later model sabres(2000-2005) have to have the exhaust pulled from the manifold and a outer tie-rod disconected to fanangle it in.....not to bad though.
This is a completely different ride now ! It's no Beemer, but it is nowhere near Grandpa's floatin' boat any more, and going down off ramps and changin' lanes on the highway is actually fun and not scary anymore. Thanks to all who posted previously, lots of good ideas helped quite a bit.
2000 black Custom sabre, tan leather, 125,000miles and still 23/30mpg GM3800 was a great block

Hello All! I'll be introducing myself in the appropriate section of the forum in the near future; tax time is not the time for a business owner to write a thoughtful new member intro

Where would I find the code for the suspension on my 2000 LeSabre? I'm pretty sure I have the base suspension, but I need to be 100% sure. I'm fine with the ride, but I'd like to use urethane bushings to replace the EXTREMELY worn stock ones. Therefore, I need the bar diameter to source some universal bushings and mounts, as there are no non-OE options for this vehicle. Sorry for the bump, but I figure that this information would be of assistance to those performing the full bar upgrade as detailed in the thread.

Production sticker should be on the underside of your spare tire cover/ trunk floor. so you gotta take allll the crap out to get to it.

I have the F41 suspension on my 2000 Limited LeSabre with the Gran Touring option. It is a very good ride that I would like to preserve. When it comes time to replace springs and struts how do I identify replacements that are equivalent in heavy duty grade to the originals?
