My car listed above LX front sway bars are 12.64 inches in length, so why can't I find OEM parts that are that size all I find is 13.82 inches?

Do you

have the same problem?

Yes

The sway bar could have been updated, so you are looking at an extra 3/4 inch on each side so you should be okay because the sway bar uses links. Here are the instructions and torque specs on how to replace the front sway bar. Check out the images (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
