I'm back, after waiting a month to receive my ebay Turbo swaybars (there were problems), and now I'm really confused. Both front and rear swaybars measure 23mm. What car would have had these swaybars? In all of the posts I've read through, I have not seen this setup, or any 23mm rear bar at all. I bought them expecting 23/21, and due to a shipping error on the seller's part (he sent those to the wrong guy) this is what showed up! Could the rear be from a different car?

At any rate, I'm thinking I will go ahead and install them with the Boge Pro-gas shocks in the rear and see how it handles. Should I be prepared to find a 19mm rear bar from a non-turbo sedan?

I also plan to have my mechanic replace the tracking rod bushings, they look worn. The other bushings did not really look worn, but I'm not sure.

I have also asked my mechanic for a price on replacing tie-rod ends, and he insists that he will only use tie-rod ends that are "greasable". Does this make sense? (He wants $195 for the job, which is in line with the dealer, including alignment.) I have contemplated doing this myself, but don't know if I would have trouble getting it apart.
