[V8] 28mm front sway bar and bushings

[Ed Kellock]

I'd appreciate it Ingo.  I have 3 examples of ABH cars and no 28mm bars.
 
It would seem to me that the conventional wisdom, at least as I believe I
understand it from this and previous discussions is wrong.
 
Am I misunderstanding something?

I'll have to check my other V8s, but I know that my pearl '91 5 speed has
the 28mm bar with Aluminum (aluminium for you Brits and Aussies) brackets.
Bought that one from Justy some time ago.  'Course I've had that one on a
few cars over the years ;-)  Haven't checked the other cars.

For the record, measuring the bar is not needed. Visually look at the inner
sway bar brackets: Stamped steel = 26mm & Cast Aluminum = 28mm. They are
VERY different!
