Sorry guys...I made a slight mistake in my original post for my math for the front sway bar. Here's the correct Part Numbers...

should be Rear = 25mm Energy Suspension pn 9.5161RFront = 30mm Energy Suspension pn 9.5171R

thanks for the correction i almost went to autozone yesterday to go order these with ur old specs. One question about these bushings, did u notice any differnece when you took off from a start? I looked at the link you provided and it shows a picture of a vehicle flexing and mentions it will reduce that, have u noticed anything like that yet?

It should help prevent that since that is the sway bar's job function on the vehicle.

I know in the drag racing world you unhook one end of the front sway bar to increase weight transfer....you can really tell on the old fox body mustangs....they flex so much sometimes the front left tire will lift a little on the launch.

I guess I notice it a little...it feels more planted on the 1-2 shift....but I have the transgo shift kit so my shifts are much more firm than stock so I doubt you'd be able to feel it. Plus with the stock differential and WOT restriction these cars launch really soft compared to how mine launchs now with the mods.

One thing I noticed is that I went to another auto parts store and they had the same bushings only in a smaller bracket and the bushing itself was black in color.

rear PN 9.5161G 25mmfront PN 9.5171G 30mm

Looks like they'd fit a little better on our chassis since we have the underbody panels.

LOL - the G stands for Black bushing and doesn't change the size - I'm an idiot

Your best bet would be to call them and ask...unfortunately this topic hasn't been discussed in the years I've been on here (in respect to the AWD guys) as far as I know...
