Yeah I had SLP weld ins and 35/24 bars, STB plus Hotchkis Adj Pnhd and RLC's on the 94 TA it handled like it was on rails:p

Doing this one a little slower,I am undecided to sell and get an LS1 or drop a LS2/3 or 6L LQ4 into this car.

Re: Just Installed my 32/19 Swaybars

I had a ST35mm front and my 21mm sway with all the other suspension mods, def. could take corners like crazy and the handling was outstanding. I switch the front to a 32mm hollow and could feel the difference right away, but the 32mm/21mm isn't so bad, good for striaght line and lost 23LBS off the front end. I hope swapping my 16.9 ratio rack to a 14.4 rack will give me the better steering response I lost from the ST35mm sway.

Re: Just Installed my 32/19 Swaybars

Sway bars are pretty sraight forward, I would do the endlinks first and then do the bushings, watch out when you get to the bushings the bar will come down and if you don't have a hand on it it will smack you in the head.LOL Also air tools come in real handy.

Rusty bolts;)

Spray everything the night before with PB or WD

Do the back first its easier,get the rear wheels off,use a grinder on the rear enlinks.

13mm socket with a 3" or 6" extension so you don't bust your knuckles on the axle housing.

Install the the bar on the axle loosely and when you put on the new enlinks use a prybar to push up on the endlink bolt to get the nut on.

Now tighten everthing up starting in the middle.

For the front you can leave the wheels on if you want.

Again get the endlinks done first,these are a bit of a pain, you may be able to reach a sawsall/recip saw but be carefull.

I just cranked on them with a 13mm socket on a 1/2" ratchet with a 13mm wrench on top.

If your lucky the bolt will break,if not your getting arm weery on your back;)

Install is the reverse.

Have fun.
