Wondering if anyone has a tape measure handy and can measure how wide their sway bar is..??

I bought a CPP 7423 heavy duty sway bar. when I went to install it it looks way to small and wouldn't match up to the mounting points on my porterbuilt lower control arms.

The sway bar is only about 41" wide and the porterbuilt mounting spots are about 47" apart.

The sway bar has a the right part number on the plastic wrapping but I'm thinking they made a mistake.

Can anyone measure how wide their sway bar is.?
