Now as for the Front sway bar they welded it the same way but it is just used as a guide to locate the front chassis bushings. That probably will work but again a weld all the way around would be stronger and help with moisture. I'm sure you guys tested these and the kit works for what it was intended to do. I just feel this was done in a cheap get it out of the door way.
The boxes that showed up to the door are complete crap. It looked as if the boxes got stuck in the rain and somehow made the trip. I can't completely say this is Steeda's fault but the sport springs came nice and without scratches all over them. I can't say the same for the panhard bar. The parts showed up in a strange way but showed up. A small box with some parts and a bag with the rest of the parts??? The box tape was holding one of the center sleeves to the upper rear control bushing in the box, Whatever. Steeda did a good job covering the ends of the bars and using the grey insti foam mold to protect that parts. Anyway this is my .02. Have a wonderful weekend, Brandon

To do so would add unnecessary cost and weight to the product. We also powder-coat under ISO 9001:2008 standards (a high-quality certification that we have attained) and have never had a single complaint, failure, or seen any rust on any of the bars on our own cars. Both parts have been in service for more than 6 years now. (in very humid climates at our Pompano Beach, FL and Valdosta, GA locations) In addition, we have sold a ton of these parts and I personally have never heard of anyone having any complaints/failures/corrosion on either part.

Who did you order these parts from? Directly from us or from one of our retailers?
