Interesting...
That means I either have a) a 27mm front bar, contrary to popular opinion and also not what I ordered or b) I got a 30mm cheap due to a f**k by either Whiteline or Autobarn.
I'm getting the calipers out when I get home.

EL Ghias dont have Tickford suspension, unless its been optioned.

Standard swaybar is 26mm and Tickford bar is 27mm. EL GT bar is 28mm.

But you also couldnt option the suspension unless you bought the 16" XR wheels as well. $5k worth of options.

So if yours is lower than normal, either its sagged a fair bit (probably not) or someone has swapped the springs. Maybe they sourced some Tickford stuff after the car was bought. You could buy the suspension kit from Ford for about $900 installed.
