Sway Bars?

Which sway bars are you guys all using? Im thinking about getting a whiteline adjustable rear sway bar. How long are these things good for? I dont know if i need a front one too though. Input would be great.

I use a Cusco rear adjustable anti-sway bar and Whiteline billet end links.

Have you searched the Suspension forum?

I have a Cusco rearsway and I love it. You can tell the difference immediately. Whiteline is pretty good too. You can get the Cusco bar from Gruppe-s and the Whiteline from MPJ. If you get endlinks (I have Helix), both the swaybar and endlinks should set you back about $240 give or take a few.

I have the blow chunks model and don't understand why anyone would make a part, esp a visible one, that color.

Whiteline parts used to be powder blue or yellow, now they are gray... never green.

Whiteline Automotive. I ordered my Whiteline anti-sway bar end links directly from them when they first came out but maybe a local i-Club Vendor carries them by now.
