What is the part number of the 21mm rear sway bar fitted on Cup cars ?

I can't find it in the archives...

What gives??? What bar do I have ?
When did you buy the set from Andial? Early 90's?

Does it measure 30mm?

Yes and Yes like 1990 and it's 30mm ( it has what looks to be an Allen plug on each end ) What's really strange is that I bought a set of those E clips from them and they are worthless ...
I guess (20yrs ago ) I just didn't understand how they were to go on, so I just didn't bother with them...

Only thought I have is that the real early made 30mm bars for the 87 cups may have not had the groove or the clips; that modification may have been added later. But I am not aware of any superseded part numbers for the 30mm bars.

Thanks Jim
I am going to give then a call tomorrow,,, I assume they are still in business ?
and see what they say.... 20 yrs after a purchase
My guess is, your guess is correct and they sold me and earlier bar, that didnt have the slots ( it's just funny, because they sold me the dam clips)

Interesting info in here!
I use these bushings on my rear sway bar (well, mine is 19mm but they make them in all sizes):

It was a very simple modification--i put a piece of flat bar behind these and they work like a champ. The price was right too!

Hi Jim
Question
I need to order new front bushings as the ones I have pictured, are squeezing out of the drop links
Does Porsche make the type you pictured for your rear bar ? Are they plastic and do they make any noise ?
kind regards
thanks

Ed,

I have never seen those plastic bushings before or since. And I only have the pair for the rear bar. I dont know for certain the original source on them, but believe it was a porsche motorsport part. Although the part number on them is the same as the 21mm rubber bushing. Its sort of a semi flexible plastic. Much harder durometer than rubber, but not as rigid/hard as delrin or polygraphite.

The only bushings for the front 30mm bars that I am aware of are the factory rubber and the racer's edge delrin.

Thanks Jim as always !!
I think I will just go with the rubber one's for the front ...If I remember those racers edge bushings were pretty expensive ( and my car is not going to be a "track car " )
All the best

I just checked it out you are correct but that's for only the inner bushings
There are 3 sets that are needed so I guess that's were the 120,00 came from ??

I thought those were the (only) ones you were talking about. FWIW, the ones that go to the A-arm are not "must haves," as you can use the original ones (though I'll be replacing them when I pick up a set of these bars (30mm and 19mm adj)).
