Hey everyone, I plan on getting a cusco rear adjustable sway bar. Knowing that its adjustable I belive I can set it at 20,22,24, or so. I plan on also doing the front sway bar as well and adding Whiteline endlinks to front and rear. But here's my question I've heard and search that many people are breaking the rear mounts and was worried about that. I was looking into the Whiteline Heavy Duty Rear Mounts and found that they come in difference sizes 22,24. So my question is if I set my rear sway bar on one setting and then later on adjust it to a stiffer setting will that be putting more load onto the mounts and will eventually break the mounts? Like if I bought a set specially for a 22mm bar and then in the future I adjust the bar to the 24mm setting will that be okay or not? Or should I just buy a 24mm Rear mount? Sounds confusing, I know....any help is appreciated.

My car: 04 wrx

Thanks,
Calvin

 

get the whole whiteline set up sway endlinks heavy duty mounts.check gst for these items.

 

Well I actually changed my mind and am going with the Perrin 25mm Rear Sway Bar that already comes with Mounts, but I am staying away from their endlinks! I am still going with Whiteline's endlinks and a cusco front sway bar. Hopefully that should work, is there anything else that I need? WIll this setup be okay with dropping the car (stock springs/struts)? Thanks

 

I see that you've gone with the Perrin anti-sway bar and mount.

Regarding the proper size Whiteline Heavy Duty mount, I believe that the different sizes of heavy duty rear anti-sway bar chassis mounts refer to the actual diameter of the anti-sway bar where it passes through the bushing in the mount, not the stiffness setting on an adjustable anti-sway bar. In other words, if the Cusco rear anti-sway bar is 22 mm in diameter, that is the size you specify when you order a Whiteline Heavy Duty mount, regardless of which of the three adjustment holes are used when everything is installed.

Wow thanks. Good to know. Yeah its probably gonna be the Perrin one for sure. My total setup is gonna cost just about 508 shipped. Seems worth it for both sways, mounts, and endlinks.

 

If you have an 04 I doubt you need new mounts. Most guys with 02-03's (myself included) just upgrade to 04+ mounts. You're probably reading about guys with bugeyes breaking mounts, the 04+ mounts are much more robust.

I'd ditch the Perrin idea and do what BLUEEJ20 said and go with all Whiteline. I'm the type that likes to run the same brand front and rear.

I'm not sure if their an i-club vendor or not but Turn in Concepts is a great vendor with good prices on Whiteline products http://turninconcepts10.chainreactio...4630f602195821 .

Mods, If I shouldn't be posting links to TIC speak up. I don't want to ruffle any feathers.
