I thought this thread was about the front sway bar? But do u know if the front sway bar should be installed with the Whiteline logo facing up?


I had the same problem with my front sway bar. I had it installed at a shop and they managed to fit it in upside down because they were trying to keep the logo facing up. When it kept rubbing the tie rods, I knew something was wrong. I contacted Whiteline via e-mail and one of their people said that the workers aren't always careful about putting the logo on the correct side. I had it flipped, and now it's fine.

I had a hell of a time getting the front in mine, very frustrating! Anyways when I had the right suspension out designing the brake kit I took the oppertunity to remove that oversized POS that cost me all my front end grip. Now I am on the stock front bar set in urethane and the trd rear on track and for my driving style the car is much more neutral and balanced. I also think with my stiff spring/shock combo (trd/eibach/bilstien) I didn't need such a big front bar, anyways I'm happy now.

So you went back to the stock front bar.... I'm thinking that I might do the same. Even though the car stays flatter around corners with the bigger Whiteline bar, I've been thinking that the car might be better with more neutral handling balance. My lsd should give me better grip around corners, so I'm not sure that the front bar is giving me much benefit.

I left off that I have the LSD also, those change the handling alot.
