Strength:
strength,price,durability,increased corning with minimal body flex.
Weakness:
May sqeak when driving before settling in, needs a better finish than the standard all black. I had the rear sway bar replaced with addco unit, which is significantly thicker and stronger than with less bends than the factory unit. Comes with new mouniting brackets and bushings which is good. Similar Products Used: Stock unit. |

1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.9 Limited
Strength:
One of the best upgrades to my Jeep EVER. Flattens out the cornering. Makes a Jeep more like a car.
Weakness:
The only bad thing is that you WILL wear out your tires faster...especially if you drive your vehicle hard. But hey, its fun. The bushing should be changed from the ones that come with this kit. I went with energy bushings, and this got rid of many squeeks associated with these sway bars. I have never had a problem with these, and recommend them to all Jeep owners who want some more on road performance. Similar Products Used: Other kits were more expensive, so why would I want to use them....especially when these bars a stiffer. |

Strength:
Gives a great improvement to handling with an affordable price and easy installation.
Weakness:
Decreases ground clearance enough that I've hit the mounting brackets on the ground several times. J.C. Whitney's customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I've installed a front sway bar on a '66 Dodge Dart. You can read a detailed account of the installation in the Project Cars section. Similar Products Used: So far, I haven't used any other aftermarket swaybars. |

1991 Toyota 4runner
Strength:
Really flattens out the cornering, makes the truck handle like a race car
Weakness:
Will wear out tires quicker, especially if the car is cornerd hard. i couldnt believe the improvment the swaybars made on this truck. The 91 4runner sr5 comes with stock front and rear sway bars, but theses are MUCH better. Install was a piece of cake, although taking the OEM bar off was a pain as the nuts were all on there pretty damn tight. i had to use an impact wrench. but the whole install only took about 2 hours. Similar Products Used: Stock sways, NO comparison, these are MUCH better |
