    I am trying to figure out the overall length to see if a 575 bar swaps between models

    If you could share the distance between mounting points, would be much appreciated!


    (Diameter):

    575: F 27mm | R 17 v 19.5 HGTC v 21 FHP
    456: F 26mm | R 18 (Note GT/Auto different PNs)

    Ok update. GTAs use a thicker sway bar however, it is not as straight due to having to accommodate for the transmission. Part numbers below.

    575: F 27mm | R 17 v 19.5 HGTC v 21 FHP
    163204 - F 27 (550/575)
    210888 - R 19.5 (HGTC)
    456: F 26mm | R 18 GT v 19 GTA
    158049 - F 26 (GT/M/GTA)
    153137 - R 18 (GT pre-22110)
    169121 - R 18 (GT post-22109)
    162434 - R 19 (M/GTA)

    Also, here is the 550/575 27mm Front sway bar (163204) dimensions.

    If someone has a 456 26mm Front bar (158049) handy, we can see if the two cross over:

    Ok to answer my own question - 550/575 sway bars do NOT directly swap on 456/456M. The mounting “ridge” (76cm apart in the above photo) is in the wrong location, so you can’t securely mount the swaybar links.

    Likewise, 550/575 rear sway bars will NOT fit on GTA/MGTA cars at all.
