Concerns about CT SWAYS
Concerns about CT SWAYS
i wanna get these but i dont wanna create more problems for myself...so kindly help me if u can....i know pple have posted about this, but i wanted something more specific to my questions...so please dont tell me to do a seach for sways, as i have already done...and thought of these as i read the posts.
what type of bushings does it come with?
I have heard that people get squeaks and noises going over bumps and was concerned about that.
Does installing sways have any adverse effects on the car? will it put too much stress on the chasis and suspension components? and casue shit to break off?
Does the CT ones come with all the necessary bolts and stuff for installation? Is it pretty easy to do a self install?
DOes it really make that much of a difference from stock??
And finally, i just got an alignment done on my car, so if i install the sways, does that mean i need to re-align the car??
thx

they come with their own bushing, squeaks you can just use teflon tape / grease that comes with the sways and if it squeaks just reapply,
does not cause anything to break more like causes stress on the endlinks but if they need to be replaced only 18 bucks,
comes with everything could self install if you used ramps, i think there are instructions somewhere,
makes a difference you can feel, tighter on the turns and less roll
make sure the endlinks aren't broken, and no need for alignment.

I installed the CT anti-sway bars about a year ago. No problems. Used ramps purchased from Schucks and had to go back and purchase the optional slip on runners as the ramps slid on the garage floor. Rear bar was a piece of cake. Used the teflon tape and took note of approximate torque to remove bolts
to try to duplicate torque on reassembly.
Front bar was more trouble but slipped right in after teaching my son a few new words. Results: Better handling as advertized. In fact, they could be more effective yet. So you don't have to worry about them being overly stiff. Only one time was there a worrisome noise, happened when backing diagonally down a steep driveway. Never happened again.
All parts were present and accounted for. Used stock bushes on one end and beefier CT ones on the other end. All in all I'm happy with the bars. Having done the install myself, I figured I save enough bucks to call the ramps free and a couple of tanks of petrol free. Good luck. Siezeya.

I just took the plunge and bought the sways and strut bar. I'm gonna try the installs myself. I missed the UPS guy today and I was SOOOO hopin' to at least get the Neuspeed strut bar in today. Oh well, shouldn't take more than 1/2 hr to do it tomorrow. I'll save the sways for another day when I have more daylight (don't have a garage - doh!) This wknd is shot too, going snowboardin' up at Whistler!!! WooHoo!
