Sway Bar Diameter?

So apparently, i have a 26mm front sway bar, online i can only get a 30 or 32 mm poly bushing for it, autozone says that there are 7 different sway bars for a 96 camaro, but autozone has been wrong before. wth?

Why do you apparently have a 26mm front sway bar?

Stock
30 mm front
19 mm rear

i used a measuring caliper, i've measured it before and gotten 30 but for some reason i measured it today and got 26mm, perhaps i should try a different measuring caliper...

Check it in the exact middle.

There were only 3 different types of swaybars for the front. 28mm on v6, 30mm on stock z28/trans am, 32mm on SS, WS6, and 1LE cars.

Rear I believe only 19mm and 21mm, 21 being on the SS/WS6/1LE.

Autozone, advanced auto, and checker are not full of the brightest people.

i hate going to autozone, i feel like i should ask for a job when i go in so that they atleast have someone that knows something other than how to change wiper blades.

I have a 94z28 w/ stock bar and Gm dealer told me a 19mm was on the v6 and thez28 had a21mm one and the SS had a 22mm one. I have a annoying sqeaukcoming from the factory bushings and come spring i will install some 21 mm poly- bushings by ENERGY SUSP. to get rid of this problem.
