Tribeca Sway Bars
So I had a thought the other day....
Anyone know if the Tribeca Sway Bars will fit on a WRX? I have no idea how thick the bars are or how long they are etc... any info would be awesome.

Car Info: 05 OBP WRX Wagon
I'm going to bring this thing back to life. The 25mm swap from the tribeca DOES fit on all 02-06 n/a and turbo wrx from rs-sti to us wagons. there is a thread in Nabisco. Its one of the things good Nabisco has to offer us. Ill post up the link when I get home. But from what I read last night there are some things you need to do before fitment.
1. Change out the stock links
Sedans-either change it to sti REAR end links or to after market. It has to do with which side the sways mount to the links.
Wagons-need to get after market front links. I think the whiteline Wagon specific one is what everyone is using over at Nabisco.
2. You need to get 24mm bushings from Whiteline and mod them to fit on a 25mm swaybar. Others have gone to lengths of modifying kartboy hangers or just custom making them from what they can find.
sedan and wagons need to do this
3. It has the stiffness equivalent to a 22.5mm swaybar. Nabisco member nerded it up and crunched the numbers.
If you are still skeptical it has been done. They will clear stock headers and has been tested for clearance on borla headers.
Heard that if you are coming from the stock front swaybar it feels a lot more planted in turns. Hoping to get this plus springs, rear sways and links, and the Cusco subframe brace in by next week. I know the subframe brace doesn't do much but you got to love that 06 diffuser look =)
