Default Traction Bars = Sway Bars?

i have no sway bars on my 94 cx.

i already have innovative 60a mounts and gsr tein basics. im looking to eliminate whatever wheel hop i still have.

since i have no sway bars, my car still sway some on turns.

will the traction bars help solve both sway and wheel hop? or will i need both sway bars and traction bars to solve my problem?

i beleive you need both because sway bars run parallel to your chassis and traction bars run perpandicular to the chassis.... if i thinking about what your asking correctly.

sway bars are to stiffen the car around corners. traction bars could help with wheel hop, but your best investment to eliminate wheel hop would to replace the bushings. something like energy suspension bushings. not only will it hgelp with wheel hop, but your car will be more responsive.
