Default RE: Front Sway Bar

I'm going to order the 1 1/4" bushings. I'm just going to keep the car as stock as possible. I'm not really concerned with drag racing, or street racing at this time. I'm going to try and get a low 13 second car that handles decent. Nothing will ever handle as well as my 80 ford pickup, but nothing I drive will probably ever have M/T tires that are 12 inches wide on it either. I looked at the sway bar closer today and someone painted it grey it looks like and the bushings in it were red so I'm assuming it was taken off a newer car and had been painted and replaced with poly bushings.

If I remove the swaybar and put it back on with the new bushings, am I going to need new endlinks?

Well I know stock end links are junk. Not sure if mine were just do or not, but after I lowered my car then put on some SN95 spindles, set it on the groun and the drivers side snapped on me. They're cheap, I'd just go ahead and get some.

you don't need new endlinks unless your break the ones that you have now. they should just unbolt/rebolt back onto the car. i'm a strong believer in the "if it aint broke, don't fix it" policy.
