Title: Rear Sway Bar
KamberB - May 12, 2009 05:20 AM (GMT)
Stillen is offering a rear sway bar as part of their items they have discounted for me and i was wondering if that is something that really has a noticeable difference in daily driving or is it just one of those things that you buy to say you have on your car? Any input?

The sway bar is what holds your car level through corners. It prevents unwanted weight transfer and loading of the chassis and helps a keep consistent contact patch between you tires and the road. Adding or upgrading sway bars makes a huge difference.

Quick question for you to. How much does it usually cost if i were to fab up my own grounding kit? Stillen is offering theres at a discount price of like $70 or something. Should i just pick that offer up?

I have done sway-bars on both my cars and I repeat, HUGE difference. It is the most effective way to control body roll, even more effective than lowering in my experience.
