Can someone confirm for me the size of the standard front sway bar on an NB?

Would it fit an NA?

I think they are 22mm hollow.
Won't fit directly on an NA as the end\\holes are angled approx 40degrees, so you need different end-links.

I have some in the garage I can measure tonight if someone here doesn't know.

IIRC it was 22mm front and 12mm rear on the NB8B standard. They are not hollow. Atleast from the weight and sound they weren't.

Got the vernier calipers out and here are the measurements on my NB8B.

FSB: 22.4mm
RSB: 11.3mm

I have the NB8A sways fitted to my NA6. With the NA6 sway links.

the angle of the sway bar is a little different. so my link ends were bent to mak it fit.

probaly not good practice but haven't had any issues.
