Default Sway Bar Q's?

Good afternoon,
I am looking to find a replacement set of sway bar bushings as my stock rubber ones are finally squeaking. I found some on Energy Suspensions' Catalog, but it says it's for a 35mm Sway Bar only.
I have a QC 4x4 and was under the impression that there were two different sizes of sway bars?
Any input?

Thanks!
That's a good write up, except I am looking at my front sway bar.

Nice work up.. I actually want a better Sway bar.. the stock has way too much play.. needs a stiffer one.. for better stabilization.

Thanks, I can't find bushings for the life of me though. They all say 35mm or 15mm. Im sure the smaller one is the rear, but I heard that the CC and SC had different front sway bars and I can't find bushings that say QC

Of course, the Prothane ones you used only go up to the 2001 Model Year.

You need to measure your sway bar. The sizes don't necessarily go by model. Get a caliber and measure it.
