hmmm....the fsm is obviously wrong again....it doesn't differentiate between turbo & non-turbo.

I know the rear is 18mm.....maybe the front is 19.....?

my guess was 19mm up front, and i understand the rear to be 18mm

Everyone fusses about the rear bars so much nobody seems to have looked up info on the fronts... lol

Oh well, 19 it is! :)

I measured the rear with one of those fancy electronic calipers and it was 19mm. And When I looked at the front it looked slightly smaller, I could be wrong...

I measured this before, and just checked it again (my stocker is hanging in my shop).

Front is 18mm.

It is posted in the suspension sticky thread.

The front swaybar on all 90-94 Legacies is 18mm except for the one with air suspension, which is 19mm.

What is the source for it being 18mm? That must be one of the most common misquotes evar.
