You have to measure it. Chrysler used 3 or 4 different manufacturers for the sway bars, and they are all slightly different in size. Mine is 26mm, yours could be 25mm, 27mm or 28mm.

I might go up to the dealer with my vin, get the full printout (it's free) to get more info on your specific Jeep. Plus, it'll help in the future.

Good Idea, on the build sheet. But it wont tell you which bar you have, only that you have one or 2.

are you wanting to do disconects? or replaceing the bushings,the only size you need to know is how thick the sway bar is.You can messure that by closeing a large cresent wrench around the bar and messure the opening between the jaws.
