Steve40th Sway bars, Did GM ever offer or sell 32mm Solid C4 sway bars, front

I purchased my sway bars many years ago from Jeff Kopp, and I have the 32 S 26 S set up. But no where on the chart for suspensions is there a 32S sway.
Just curious, as I have measured it and it is a little over 1.25 inches, which is 32mm.
I lost all paperwork and logs years ago (2001) when I moved, so I am curious how I got this bar from Jeff.

The biggest GM ever offered was a 30mm front. I've got a 32mm too but it's from VB&P.

Good question... but I prefer hollow. They work exactly the same, but are lighter.

I AM SO STUPID
Well guess what, GMS Quality assurance isnt all that either.
The bushing is 30mm. I squeezed it real hard and it is 30mm. There is a piece of rubber where they cut the bushing to allow you to put around the bar, and when they cut it was causing it to not compress correctly.
I feel like an Opti SPark

You're supposed to measure the bar, not the bushing dummy.

Well anyways, here are the new stiffer OEM bushings.
The poly bushings are offset to pull the bar forward. Wonder why?
