Default SRT6 Sway Bar vs N/A limited (trying to tell the difference between the two visually)

I purchased and installed a SRT6 front sway bar on my 2004 Limited Crossfire. When I had them both off the car and laying side by side, I could not for the life of me tell the difference. They felt like the weighed the same and the had the same tone when tapped with a wrench. I thought the Srt6 one would weight more due to the Limited one being hollow. The tail end of the Limited's part number was wore off and I could only get the Begging A170 (I think it was.) I started to wonder if the previous owner had installed a SRT6 sway bar but I purchased it in early 2006. Didn't the SRT6 not come out until late 05-06?

So I am basically asking for some help in identifying a Limited Sway bar vs and SRT6.

STR-6 sway bar = 28mm
Limited sway bar = 25mm

So I probably just could not see the difference. I need a tape to measure it.

Calipers, preferably. The difference is in the center of the bar... the ends are the same as I was able to reuse the end bushings from my Limited when I did the upgrade on my white one

does the 3mm make a big difference?

Not enough to rush out and buy one brand new from the dealership. But if you have the ability to obtain a SRT bar for $100 or less, it's a worthwhile mod. Very easy to swap and there is a noticeable decrease in frontal roll. Certainly cheaper than the H&R bar that is $350 for a 5mm increase.

Thanks for the info, John. I was waiting to hear some real life info before trying to hunt one down, too many other things to do...
