    <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>From mods database:
    Sway bars are narrow metal pipes that run underneath each axle connecting one wheel to the other. The OEM sway bars on the F-Body have a small diameter (larger is better) and very weak. The result is that the wheels cannot sway (angle) as much and stay perpendicular to the ground better in a hard turn, allowing your tires better contact with the ground and giving a strong handling boost. All aftermarket sway bars are larger than the OEM size. Most aftermarket sway bar kits come with polyurethane sway bar bushings, which further improve handling. All sway bars for a fourth gen will fit any other fourth gen, V6 or V8.

    If you're looking for more then that, I dunno! ;)
