Default AU1 - front swaybar size

Whats the standard size of the AU1 front swaybar?

Just measured the old one from the ute, and its 28mm. Someone told me that utes got a bigger bar stock than the sedans, so just seeing if I can flog the old one off as a cheap handling improvement...

According the Whiteline catalogue the AU1 sedan/ute/wagon all share the same front swaybar.

S1 had the 28mm bar and S2 got the 24mm bar due to revised link bushing systems and suspension.

S1 bars do not fit S2/4 due to location and orientation of swaybar
