  • z28 sway bars with poly bushings and endlinks?

    What do you guys think of this?

    30/19 vs a 28/15mm setup.

    and upgrading the endlinks and bushings.


    Jsut a dirt cheap upgrade.

    Isn't the stock front size 30?
    1LE is 32mm, I'd get that.

      98+ got a 28/15, 93-97 got 30/17


      Z28s got 30/19, 1LE is 32/21

      and free stock swaybars are cheaper then any money for a 1LE...

      Ideally I would like a 35/19 setup [img]smile.gif[/img]

        If you have stock V6 springs, that will give you way too much oversteer, especially in wet weather and/or hard cornering. The Z28 bars, particularly the rear, are designed for heavy front springs and a forward weight bias.

                That is about to happen to me shortly. I've been lazy to install the 30mm sway. But I got new bushings for both the frt and rr, along with new endlinks for the frt. All OEM, don't want to deal with squeaky poly. :D

                  poly really doesnt squeak as bad as people make it out to. the only stuff that squeaks on my car is the stock suspension equipment.

                    99v6cam and i installed my old 30/17 combo on his camaro today. we just used my stock bushing since it was a spur of the moment install... we pretty much had nothing better to do. he can post if he noticed any difference.
