Default Front GT sway bar switch??

Couple of months ago, i just added the rear GT sway bar to add more oversteer for drifting. I was wondering would it be a good idea to replace the Front GT sway bars??

the reason y i didnt add it is because i dont hav the brackets that will hold the sway bar. will the brakets on my v6 work on the GT???

brackets will be the same...but the bushings will different in size, the GT bar is thicker, bigger hole.....if you were to buy a GT front sway......used or take off, it should come with the bushings.......the brackets are the same.......yes, the GT bar will make difference.......GT500 bar will work as well..........I went for the Saleen after I had the GT Sways......Anyway I hope that helps....

I thought a stiffer sway gave you less oversteer and more understeer.....

GT front sway will definitely help although the noticeable difference will NOT be as great as adding the rear sway. if you want to add more benefit and performance to your sways, add the poly bushings. they are very affordable and worthwhile. i ran GT sways in different configurations just out of curiosity and for my own knowledge. GT sways front and back with poly bushings is the best/affordable option IMO.
