Energy Suspension makes 2 sets of Front Sway Bar Bushings, 22 mm and 23 mm. I asked them which one for a 5.5 Gen SE 6MT, and they told me to go measure my bar.
Not that I have a problem measuring my bar...
But seriously, which one is the right set? I suppose it's possible the SE model has a thicker FSB, but I never heard of that. For those of you in the know, can you educate, please?

i know im years late on this but from all ive read and seen.. gle/gxe 22mm and se is 23mm ... know that doesnt help at this point but update when you replace them if you feel anything

Struts, boots, strut mounts, rotors and pads next Spring... and I figured since the FSB end-links are prone to wear and failure, (and since the kits from Moog are so inexpensive), I'd replace the end-links and FSB bushings.
With all that happening at once, I'm sure to feel a significant change in my ride, but there's no way any of that could be identified as the result of installing ES bushings on the front sway bar.
