The Addco rear sway bar is not dead!

**Booba5185** · 08-07-2015

That's pretty shocking, they must have ordered a batch with everyone else in this thread. Most everyone had to wait months.

**Acdc88** · 08-07-2015

I read about the ridiculous wait times in the comments. I ordered a GMPP rear sway from zzp last Friday, and found this thread tues. now I have to send the GMPP back . . . But from what's been said about the Addco, it's absolutely worth it.

**Booba5185** · 08-07-2015

Oh yea, going from the GMPP to the Addco myself I can say it is well worth it, lol.

Being kind of a noob to suspension geometry, especially with these cars, I'm curious how upgrading the sway bars (front and rear) would change the way the car feels while I drive. More responsive steering? Better grip? Share some knowledge

**Booba5185** · 08-08-2015

Less body roll so the weight doesn't shift off of the tires so easily, so yes. Better grip. You also will feel it being more responsive because the body won't roll into a turn as much. That's the quick way to describe it, lol.

bigger is stiffer ...... and we all know, stiffer is better

My bar is still holding up well. No issues yet from not using the bar clamps. Went through some pretty intense stuff during the Omaha ice cream cruise. It can definitely outhandle a crown vic.

Showed up at lunch that day. Installed in about 40 minutes with new moog end links! I also installed a new progress front sway, so I can't say that the rear made all of the difference. haven't put it through its paces but I'm not reaching for the brake pedal through turns nearly as much as I remember. Now to put on the full BMR suspension kit I just finished piecing together!

**Booba5185** · 08-13-2015

Why didn't you just use a Dorman front sway? Same thing and way cheaper.

**Acdc88** · 08-13-2015

Because . . .

a bigger rear sway bar with a stock front sway bar will make a big difference lol

**Booba5185** · 08-13-2015

Because...

**HighOctaneRacing** · 08-14-2015

Because the rear will stiffen up...

No I was talking about him using the Progress front sway over the Dorman.

**Acdc88** · 08-19-2015

Anyone have trouble with the exhaust hitting the bottom and sides of the sway bar? Mine made a light noise when hitting bumps, looked underneath and the finish on the bar is beat up and rubbed through from contacting the exhaust. all my hangers are solid... the Bar is installed like this: tire> I I-\__/-I I <tire. should it be this I I-/'''\-I I ? it looks like that could work, but the spare tire depression appeared to prevent that installation orientation.

Well i just scored one from jegs will be a week or 2 before I have time to install it. Currently I have kyb agx set at 2 all the way around with vogtlands and front Gmpp strut tower brace Rest of the suspension is stock still I'm probably going to get a dorman front sway bar.
I just want try the addco by it self also What end links are you guys running with the addco?

While I'm here do trailing arms and lateral bars really make much difference.
On wbody store they claim they do but money is tight right now so it will be a while unless I actually needed them thanks.

Did my post confuse you? BLAME AUTOCORRECT!

**Acdc88** · 08-19-2015

I did everything in a week. (F/r sway bars, Moog rear endlinks, BMR trailing arms, BMR f/r control arms, BMR f/r strut tower braces.) Car is much tighter in the rear. I'm going to get new poly bushings for the front control arms and tighten that up a little bit.

I can't say if the components are worth it or not on an individual basis... But the whole package has transformed the cars handling immensley.
