Pretty sure the Whiteline code for front swaybar is the same for BA and AU models? Would be the same size then??

Same front bars will fit AU and the other thing. The only difference was between models. T-Series had fatter bars than Forte for example.

Stock front sway bar across the range is 26mm, and i think the T-series cars had a 29(?)mm front, can't remember the rear sizes off the top of my head.

I thought stock front was 22mm, you can only get Whitelines in 27mm or 30mm?
Stock rear is 20mm? And you can get a 22mm Whiteline for the rear?

Front series 1 was 27mm and series 2/3 were 24mm, which are the same as BA/BF.
