JHamilton117 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Will I need anything special to make it work or is it a direct bolt on?I've been trying to search but somethings wrong and it won't load any results. Also is the GT an improvement over my stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyRuu Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 if you check out the suspension/brake section there tons of info/ stickies. unfortunately no answer to your gt over stock question. but the gt guys usually spring for the JDM sway, tribeca, baja, or all the premium 20mm+ sways made by whiteline, cobb, ect. you should update your end links with any new bar. some say you should do this first to see if it makes the difference your looking for in the first place. solid endlinks are first choice around here but dont have any brands for you and i could wrong about them being first choice. all i know is thats where i would start first.

JHamilton117 Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 I'm sure my car needs them! I'm honestly still learning and don't know much about suspension lol I see so many different bushings when looking at the aftermarket sites that I have no idea what goes where or what its purpose really is for some things, ugh so much I don't know. I ultimately want better handling out of the car in general with a focus on be able to tow safely and comfortably. I think I need to set my computer up and start reading, instead of browsing on my phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHamilton117 Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 I wanna reduce some squishyness everywhere, and not get blown around on open highways as much lol (probably more just a feeling than actual movement) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98legwag Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 On my 3.0R Limited I did the JDM 20mm rsb with AVO mounts and bushings. It made a nice difference. I then Perrin end links all around which again made a nice difference. Finally I added the Tribeca fsb and now my car is where I like it. Still has the comfort but is stable enough and handles well enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHamilton117 Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Will rear sway bars from a Tribeca or Baja be a direct bolt up? Looking to harvest and reuse a rear sway bar from a junk yard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyRuu Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Only the tribeca front sway is direct bolt up to the front but is different in comparison, it wraps around the time rods differently but still works. Moog end links are not a bad step forward instead of doing a strait solid end link option and they have zurks to grease them easier. And you must match the bushings with the bar. Baja rear sway is a direct bolt up but I have heard of people having to fight with it to make it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyRuu Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I do believe even the outback wagon is more of a step up from our rear bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
