Question About Sway Bars...

I have an 87 Sport Coupe that I am completely rebuiding, the sway bars on it are less the effective, I was looking at the Suspension Techniques front/rear set, its about half the price of the Hotchkis set. Anyone use these or have any info on them? Thanks.

You need to match the bars to whatever suspension setup you're using on your rebuild.

I'm sticking with stock coil over and 2-link. Just want to beef it up a little bit.

Re: Question About Sway Bars...

So you are sticking with factory v6 springs?

The suspension needs to be built as a whole....sticking with a mostly stock sport coupe suspension and just adding a beefy set of aftermarket sway bars isn't a very good idea.

Sorry I worded it wrong, I am re-placing everything with an upgraded counterpart, just sticking with the basic design. In other words, no I am not sticking with any of the stock v6 stuff. Make more sense?
