I'd say rear sway. Unless you plan on really beating up on it. But trust me, there are HUNDREDS of threads exactly like this one. Just search. It will be easier for all of us.

and yes, trdsparks is reliable and well-accepted

The front strut bar does nothing, more for looks. The rear sway bar is a great mod.

Also can you please search before you make threads, almost all your threads have been on topics that have been cover a bunch of times.

its basically four bolts holding the sway bar and the end links. the easy part is taking it out. but the tricky part is putting the new one back in, especially without scratching it.

rear sway bar+ front&rear strut bars is nice, i plan on getting dezod endlinks for the front&rear and then i'll be good. but if you can afford to buy both then go ahead and put the strut bar on first and drive around and see if you notice a difference, some do and others dont...
