Going through and doing suspension on our stock height 2005 Tahoe. Was going to do front/rear sway bar bushiungs and end links, but when I'm looking at parts, I keep finding different size sway bar bushings and I have no clue what mine are. Its just a 2wd LS. Any ideas?

Wrap a strip of paper around the sway bar in a clean spot and mark where the end overlaps. Straighten it out and measure it with a tape measure.

I forgot to get the VIN, but I do have question why the hell are there multipe sizes? You would think it would be easy like most vehicles...2005 Tahoe LS 2 WD front sway bar bushings = this size and this size only. Why are there different size options?

@Fless has the right answer for you. Get a measurement and get the right ones. If you do get the poly ones, be prepared for some squeaks from time to time. You should put some lube in there where the poly/rubber rides on the metal bar when you install anyway.

Thanks for the quick reply and answer.
Will do it, buy it and let you know. I have in the shopping cart the upper control arms, the sway bar links and the lower control arms. Then will work on the rear.
Thanks again!!!
