Fantastic stuff. Whiteline always does good work. When I'm ready I'll have to look at these options. Now is not that time though lol.

With the side stoppers on the sway bar, isnt there a chance that they move sice they are removable and not fixed? Very nice videos btw!

They are a high quality aluminum with set screws and they clamp on there pretty tight, so I doubt you would ever see one move. Also those Swaybar collars are not under a bunch of pressure or force, so they do a great job of keeping the sway lined up even in the most severe conditions.

Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Rick

Were they hollow? And what brand? I've never heard of a Whiteline bar snapping.

Yeah the Whiteline bars are all solid from my experience, I'm not sure what kind of load you'd have to put on one to actually snap it. I've never heard of one snapping.

they were autotech, the freakin bushiongs kept squiking as well, really annoying to get looks for squeeks on a brand new car. i quickly put the stock back on after it broke the second time, they sent me another one and i threw it out.
