Which sway bar?

I am out of town for a week, so I can't measure (and I don't trust my wife to get an accurate measure within 1mm ) but I want to take advantage of a good bushing sale and order all the bushings I need for my truck project (thread coming soon). Does anyone know which sway bar diameter is most likely on an 04 Double Cab 4wd?

 

In speaking with Energy Suspension they say it should be either 26 or 27mm.

 

No friends that can measure ??

Maybe if your very friendly with your Toyota Parts people They can use the Vin and figure it out if your truck is still Stock

Sadly measure is the only way to be shore .

Order all the sizes and sell the wrong ones.

Good Luck

 

Thats the way I'm leaning

 

26mm for non-trd model
27mm for trd model

 

OK, that is helpful!

 

Before you get to excited Are you 100% sure the Sway Bar was never changed??

Going by the VIN I was wrong a Few guesses I just measured after that.

i have no idea How they measure 1mm difference sure does look very different on paper but when you have the wrong bushings . It looks like inches not MM

At 1 mm at most a 3mm gap I really wished it worked like that.

 

I know for sure that the prior owners did nothing to the truck... but yeah, measuring would be best

 

The correct answer here is no sway bar

 

My wife drives the truck too and that would FREAK her out...

 

Yeaaaa

but with the proper suspension you can't even tell a difference

 

But would she know enough to notice it was gone?

I can go either way I guess it depends on how you drive .

Mine was off for a few months .

Half the time the Bushing are worn so bad they really do not do much.

 

True, my commute to work is over a mountain with lots of highway speed turns, not sure the truck would like it without a sway bar... but im not expert here.

 

I had no noticeable increase in body roll after removing mine. I did however have a very noticeable increase in articulation and smoother driving off road, but I have OME springs and shocks. I’ve heard with stock suspension most people have increased body roll, some significant. I’d say if you are going to, or already have, an upgraded suspension delete the anti-sway bar. If you are sticking with the original, warn out suspension keep it.

 

Interesting. I am putting an OME suspension on it now so maybe I'll try that.

 

After I took mine off it sat in the corner of my garage in case I changed my mind and wanted to put it back on. About six months later I was convinced it was never going back on, and gave it to a friend to make knives out of.

 

shouldn’t, unless she drives fast

 

This ^

 

Every one is going to describe how it handles to them .

the only real way to know is to see how it feels to you and the Mrs.

Then go by how you both feel .

Good luck.

 

27mm is the sway bar, finally home so I could measure. Going to order those bushings but plan to do a before/after removal of the bar once I finish my return.
