Hello all, just joined the community and I'm looking to make some small mods to my 2006 Scion tC.

I've been reading some threads and determined that I want to get Springs and Strut Bar/Sway bars. I'm planing to get the TRD Springs but I'm not sure if I should get a Strut Bar and Rear Sway Bar or to get both Rear and Front Sway Bars instead.

Originally I wanted the Strut Bar to increase the integrity of the front chassis, will the front sway bar do the same job instead? If they're similar what would the trade off be?

Thank you for the help!

I've done Front and Rear Sway Bars using Hotchkis. Front Strut Bar and Tein Flex Z coilovers. Body roll is slim to none. 😁

Unless you plan on doing autocross/track, I don't think it is worth it to get a front sway bar. Too thick of a front sway bar can also cause your car to understeer. I have the TRD springs, TRD rear sway bar with Moog end links (Beefy greaseable ones, front and back), and TRD strut bar and the body roll is very minimal. The front sway bar can also be a pain to change out.

 

The front sway bar was a pita to install... But I like that there's hardly any body roll. Not needed but definitely loved the results
