For the endlink I need the measurements of the rubber grommit. This is the one that connects the sway bar to the droplink... the car is an 81 euro...
My sway bar is 21.5mm
I imagine that only the rubber grommit ID changed through the various models and not the drop link itself so if you could fill in the blanks that would be great...

This website has a better picture: BUSH 10 measurements are what I'm after...

Bushing OD _______
Drop Link Width _______
Bushing Collar Width (one side) ______
Bushing Length Total ______
Drop link ID _______

Thanks
Leadfoot

the lenth is longer and so they need to be trimmed in the middle. Use the extra with a hose clamp on the inner side to stop seperation...
