FYI: I was just browsing Ebay this morning and found that The Parts Place is now selling repop 1 1/4" front sway bars for 85 bucks:

Be aware if you buy this from these morons Turd  and you don't like it, It doesn't fit, Or if it is flat out wrong you will have to pay for the shipping back and a re-stock fee, yes even if they are at fault. I left them neg feedback one week ago today and in one week they have had 7 more neg comments. They have managed to piss off 7 more people in one week.. One of them being the sway bar you have in the link. Some of the members on here have had no problems and great service with them and some have not.... Just beware. Hey they screwed me so sure I'll bash them.....

I've got the Summit Racing 1 5/16" front on mine. It fits good and came w/ poly bushings and end links. I haven't tried the Parts Place one, just stumbled across it on Ebay.

Yeah, It's a pretty decent bar for the money and comes w/ everything except the bolts that attach the saddle clamps to the frame.

I snagged one from a Trans Am so 1 1/4", can't remember the year but fit like a glove after getting new bushings and brackets for the bushings (had 15/16" bar)
