I've got an '89 744T. It wallows. I've replaced all the front bushings, ball joints, tie rod ends, checked everything. It's healthy, it just has a lot more body roll than I like. The fact that my other daily driver is a very stiff autocrosser probably doesn't help my perception of the amount of body roll I get in the 744T. Anyway, I was at a self-serve j-yard today for something else and checked out an '89 764T. I noticed the front sway bar looked bigger than what I've got on the 744T. I didn't have calipers with me, but with a crescent wrench and comparing it to a 22mm open end wrench, it measured 24-25mm including the undercoating, so I figure it's probably a 23 or 24mm bar. I checked my 744T with calipers when I got home, and it's 21mm front and rear. Am I missing something here? I expected all turbo 700 sedans to have the same diameter front bar, regardless of whether they had IRS or not. Until today I thought 21mm was as large as they came stock. Anybody ever swap this or know definitively what 700 models/years had what diameter front swaybars?
