Re: need sway bars (Wont be beat)
yeah if you get the front, you'll still have understeer. with the rear, you're drastically feel less body roll and more oversteer(just be careful and dont make a 360 turn in your car).

Jack up one end of car so that the suspension is extended completely and no weight is on the 2 wheels, and re-center main stb shaft, and re-install. Repeat for the other end of the car.

Re: need sway bars (dave94ex)
I havent seen someone do this, nor can I find evidence that it actually works, but to me, in theory it should work. My rear stb is angled meaning the main shaft (which can me made seperate from the brackets) is tilted upwards so that the flat parts are facing for and aft. The ebay bars' shafts are an oval/oblonged shaped when looking at from the side, sort of like an air plane wing. Now, to the best of my knowledge, the strut towers themselves, tend to move toward or away from each other, and the angle of the bar with the ends facing north and south offer the most structural regidity this way, since the bar wont bend at all this way. At worse, it cant hurt. If this makes sense to anyone, please say yes.
