cause mine has wear where the bushings are. And I don't want to spend now much on aftermarket sway bars, I just want to use bar from a junk yard.

is it same diameter?

Much smaller diameter; that's why Elantra owners upgrade to the Tibby bars. Elantra bars are 13 or 15 mm depending on model.

The wear most likely is not the bar itself but just the bushings. Just get new bushings (and maybe new end links). That should cost less than US$50 in parts (not sure what Russia prices are like, but I can't imagine it would be that much), and except for dealing with rust is a pretty easy job.

^^^

Ukraine not Russia nana.gif
bushings - 4-5 bucks each
links - about 15 each


When I took bushings I found out that diameter of sway bar in that place were smaller. I installed new bushings but in about 10K miles it started to click - click again...
