Wrap a strip of paper or a piece of string around the bar and mark it for circumference. Then flatten it out, measure the circumference with a ruler and divide by 3.14 to get the diameter.

For many years, depending on options, the Ranger has had either 1.06" (1 1/16") or 1.14" (1 1/8") diameter sway bar. In metric, these correspond to roughly 27mm or 29mm. One of these will probably be very close to the diameter that you found by measuring.

it is the 1.14 which is 29mm but energy only makes a 28.5 and a 30mm which would be better to use
