just installed wonder bar!!!

this thing is pretty sweet. took me like 2mins to install it and i notice one heck of a difference. my front end is a lot tighter feeling. i even did some aggressive driving with it and seem to be better. now if i can just get the money for the spohn sway bar package ill be done with my suspension except maybe a stb. im very pleased with it.

Tell u what.

If u do up the suspension on one of these cars without a wonderbar and then install one, you will notice the difference.

:-)

Mine was laying around and I was lazy so it never got put on unitl recently before I got new tires, first run with it was out to Tirerack, and it was fun on the highway even moreso than before.

later

I agree. There really shouldn't be that much of a difference. Chances are if you are feeling that much of a change, there was something wrong to begin with (cracked steering box possibly?).

The only thing I noticed after putting it on was a little better accuracy in steering when trying to park or do very sharp turns.

That's just my personal experience though. No flame intended.

TBH there is a noticeable amount of difference:
I had the stress cracks in the frame welded u and plated, and felt a difference. THEN I got a wonderbar, and yes the car was even better SOTP

Mark.
