Help!
Looking to finish up my front suspension mods. A wonder bar is a wonder bar..right? I mean we have TDS, UMI, Spohn...etc...They are all pretty much priced the same so is there other considerations to think about?

Switching from a 32mm front sway bar to a 34mm.

TDS has a nice bar that allows for a third bolt on each side but it looks to much like the stock bar painted red/black to me.
I'm impressed with UMI parts so that's the way I went. "Hopefully" Sub frames are next.

Spohn Wonderbars are known for having fitment issues on dual fan cars.

I bought the TDS brace. It fits "perfectly." The extra mounting bolt holes on it are a nice touch too.

 

+3 for TDS wonderbar. Real nice piece, and Lon is a great guy to deal with.

 

There really is only one choice if you search, TDS

 

The first company (that I'm aware of) to produce an aftermarket Wonder bar is Global West. I went with their version many years ago. No issues with dual fans or fitment.

Thank you And Happy Easter

I went with UMI i had to bore out the holes alot to get it to bolt up this was on a 86z factory carb car never wrecked.

 

Mine fit fine(umi) but no fans or rad yet. I don't think you can go wrong with any. However I'm not sold on spohns adjustable one, looks like a weak spot for one, other is why?
