Rear sway bar size on a 2000 WS6?

I need to order the rear sway bar mount kit for my 12 bolt and I need to know which size the sway bar is so I can order it. Is it 19mm or 21 mm?

My roommate did the clamps until he got the BMR kit. I also found out last night that on the WS6 the front sway bar is the only sway bar that is upgraded(32 mm) while the back stayed 19mm. It was only 21 mm from 93-94

Not true, my 2002 had a 21MM from the factory, I also know the 01 did too.

Hmm, my car came with a 32mm solid front and something small in the rear. Now it's got a 36mm hollow front and 24mm solid rear, all factory... oh, but it's a 3rd gen :P . Everybody that looks at my front sway bar says they've never seen one so big. I just laugh and say, yeah, I think they picked them out of the Bus division's overstock shelfs. Bigger is better when dealing with crappy suspension geometry (under high travel).
For drag racing, I'm sure you know, you want a huge rear bar. It's there to counter act the torque squat.

I love the 36/24 setup on my Formula, 3rd Gen's handle so much better then the 4th Gens
