Sway bars SS/Z28. Susp.install prices

Would 98 SS sway bars be a different diameter then the stock ones that came on my 94 Z28? I got both. Do they both require the same size bushings and End links? The car has not been lowered at all. I am about to buy and install new bushings and end links and dont want to buy the wrong ones. Also... I your opinion- How much do you think a suspension shop would charge to install a set of Subframe connectors (bolted and welded) and a new torque arm (the one that has the plate that bolts to the body of the car). Im not sure if is the BMR torque arm or what because I bought it from an individual. Its powder coated red, has a greaseable bushingand driveshaft safety loop. Just not sure the brand. Anyways how many hours of labor and how much do you think the bill would be? Any feedback would be appreciated

The 98SS should be 32mm and the 94 should be 30mm. I"m pretty sure endlinks are the same.

The welding is depedning on where your at...

32mm swaybar bushings are bigger, they do not use the same ones as the 30mm swaybars.

Endlinks are the same.

Ask local shops for prices of install. Every place is different.

I have read on here that some people have gotten away with only paying 50 bucks or a little less to have SFCs welded in. Around me, the few shops that I got quotes from charged a minimum of one labor hour so I ended up paying 75 bucks to have my SFCs welded in. Still not a big deal.

Re: Sway bars SS/Z28. Susp.install prices

I appreciate you guys input. I will check my local shop. I just didnt want to get ripped off. Any input about the torque arm. Has anybody ever paid to have one installed. I believe that the kit is called a trak pack or something like that anyways. Like i said Im kinda in the dark about it casue I bought it from an individual. Powder coated Red with no other markings
