Any suggestions on what to pick up? Mine are deteriorated. I was thinking of just going to AutoZone for a quick buy but they asked the diameter of the bar (for the bushings). How many diameters were there? They have the links in the store.

I figured it out, my sway bar is 7/8" or 22.22 mm vs 15/16 23.80 mm.

yes, sway bar changes depending if /6-SB or BB.
about the bushings... I have had luck to find nice replacements on the local Venezuelan market for suspension rubber replacement parts, made in Venezuela. I had the 7/8" sway bar and upgraded to 15/16" bar what I found NOS locally. Had to reuse the same size bushings because didn't find them with bigger hole. It absorved the extra thickness.
I can't recall on catalog a diff PN for them between diff sway bars thought
( for whatever reason, 74 Chargers in Vzla got whatever piece available on assembly plant yet, maybe because just begining with 74 production decided not to assembly Chargers anymore, so being BB got SB bar used for Coronets allways assembled with SB which were to be kept on the assembly line. My 74 Charger is one of the few assembled )

Ended up finding the bushing and the end links on a site called suspension.com. I've never bought from them before. They had the same (energy suspension) brand parts I've found on multiple sites. $ 41.32 shipped for polyurethane. Yup It appears I have the 7/8 size, though it's a BB car.

When I redid my front end I was amazed at how much I got, in fact all of the parts at O'Reilly & Auto Zone.

AutoZone had them but not polyurethane. Been having lots of issues with the knowledge and quality of service at AutoZone I ended up canceling the order because Suspension.com called me to say they are back ordered on the bushings. Lots of people working on their cars. I ended up , as mentioned above, at Rock Auto.

Yeah tell me about all the people working on their cars. As the weeks go on at NPD we're showing more and more parts out of stock. Vendors are either not working or have skeleton crews working. We're having record sales but the down side is, being cooped up, people are impatient and irritable.
