About to buy sways just wondering if some of the good folks who have tried them, or found good deals on them can give me any suggestions on which ones they like and where to get them thanx.

 

have you tried to use the search feature yet?

 

^^Knew that was coming, there are a lot of articles on sway bars. I have the TRD rear sway bar and I think it is great

 

Get the TRD rear sway and call it a day. Its all you need for a daily driver.

 

I went with TRD, and I autocross. Immediate, undeniable, and amazing results. Easily the best suspension mod for our cars available.

I've driven a hotchkis-equpped front/rear sway combination, and it "felt" nearly identical. In my opinon, either will serve you very well, but do you want to spend the effort in installing the front sway as well?

 

i have hotchkis front and rear sways love em just a warning though front is a _____ to do lol.

 

TRD and Progress bars are very good for daily drivers. If youre going more towards straight performance without caring for comfort, get the hotchkis front/rear sway bar combo.

 

i'd do progress, its a little more than the trd, but the price difference makes up for the 3 way adjustablilty and the beefier endlinks the progress comes with.

 

what is this i hear about the TRD sways not coming with end links or something?

 

The TRD is designed for use with the stock endlinks.

Endlinks, themselves, are funny things. I have had bad luck with aftermarket ones (all tend to bend... been through 3-4 sets with different install procedures)... but I've never had an issue with the stockies.

As far as I know, you're not likely to break the stock endlinks using the TRD bar or Progress bar. If you custom-make a literal solid hunk of carbon steel, then maybe.

 

xdejablu3x, TRD sways do not come with new endlinks. Progress ones do though.

 

I went from TRD to Hotchkis sways and 3 years later i don't regret it! do it right the first time and get the hotchkis!

 

I just installed the TRD sway yesterday and went out for a test drive afterwards. It feels pretty good, my friends who drove my car prior to the install also said they felt a difference and that the car feels more planted during a turn now. :D

 

so whaqt exactly does the trd sway come with when you open the box? im about to buy a used one and need to make sure it comes with everthing i need. Is it just the bar itself?

 

side note: has anyone driven a tc with the H&R rear sway?

 

yes it was.....

but def worth doing it.....

 

If it's a daily driver... the TRD or Progress (or H&R for that matter) will be fine - as already mentioned. If you plan on pushing a little harder, maybe the Progress, since it comes with new end links.

If you are going to race at all and want some adjustability, the Hotchkis set is the only one with front and rear. Everything else is just rear - but as mentioned, perfectly fine for daily driving.

Even the Hotchkis set is overkill for some stuff...

 

just talked to my boy he suggested that if i get the trd rear sway i should get new bushings, did you guys get new bushings? if so what brand?

 

The bar should come with new bushings, new brackets and some lube.

Hehe... lube.

 

yea but im buying the bar used so i think it will come with just the bar
