sway bars...

[GT500916]

im gonna get me a sway bar kit because my car rolls to much on turns, and im thinking going 1" on the front and 3/4 on the rear, would this be a good set up? From what i know if you go 1" from and back then the car wont handle right, also if i just go 1" on the front and nothing on teh back then the car wont be at its best. What sawy bars you guys run and does anyone have any good site where i can buy a nice front and rear set up? Thanks

we usually need to run a slightly thicker sway bar in the rear. our cars natural balance from the factory is understeer. so if you put a thicker sway bar up front. it will only make it push worse.

not nessecarily, it depends on the thickness of the rear bar too...

you can use different sized bars from front to rear to create a balance or certain style of handling that you like.

You can get a bigger front roll bar, this doesn't mean you will get more understeer, if you also enlarge the rear sway bar, in porportion to the front, you will still have the same balance as before but a setup better at handling a laterally rolling chassis.

In theory you could go larger on the front sway bar, and take an even greater size jump in the thickness of the rear sway bar and maintain a greater oversteering effect then stock..while still adding beef to the front sway bar.

Of course some really stiff springs(12k or 10k et al.) eliminates the need for such heavy thicker swaybars, as the springs take up more of the lateral movement...

if you don't really plan on getting a set of coilovers, or taking years to get a set, swaybars are a good thing for you to buy.
