More parts that will go into my hoard until I'm good and ready to install

I have a closet full of suspension overhaul parts. All new Bilsteins, drop springs, mounts etc, Moog sway links, tie rods, Dorman front bar, Addco rear bar, BMR lateral arms. other small stuff. Gonna order BMR trailing arms and STB's as well as new LCA's and hubs all the way around.
Glad i took the time to read through this. I had similar problems with summit end of 2016. Jegs had one to me in 4 days. The Addco bushings have some sort of fiber material on the ID where the bar rides, i assume this is for noise control. Not sure if i will use those or the Energy suspension ones i bought.
Also i checked my Moog end links for fitment before installing based on the hole being to small. They dont fit, so glad i can drill them out before getting under the car.
Should be a nice addition with my dorman front and new BMR trailing arms.
I know this is a 2 year old thread but just finished the Addco rear sway and BMR trailing arms. All i have to say is WOW! only did a short test drive but when i would be on the brakes in a turn there is no need for that anymore the car just goes where you point it!
Have an ADCO rear sway sitting in my trunk for like ever..... Probably should put it on someday soon! Will have a GMPP rear for sale then ; )
So literally 2 years later I'm installing my Addco rear bar since I had both wheels off to fix brake pads. Anyone know which direction the bushings go on? They are split on one side instead of the center like OEM.
I would think put the slit on the top, since most of the pressure will be in the downward motion.
I already ended up putting it facing up but not because of directional pressure. I couldn't tighten down the bottom nut on the bracket without seriously deforming the bushing. Addco's site says to use shims to prevent that and I didn't want the bushings split to be on the same side as the shimmed gap.
Also, as people have mentioned, you CAN swing the rear end out now even with basically new rear tires.
Old thread I know, but I actually just ordered one from Jegs December 2nd. Last I heard from emailing Jegs customer service, it wouldn't ship until February 1st. Anyone else order the ADDCO bar recently?
I've ordered two of them. First one was probably 2 years ago. It took several months to get it. The second one I ordered maybe 8-10 months ago and it took a couple weeks was all. I think I ordered mine through Summit if I remember right.
Since this got resurrected, I know firsthand you can email Addco sales directly. I believe its just sales@addco.net
In 2017-2018 I waited months for Summit and Jegs but finally cancelled. Jegs I waited about 6 weeks and I gave Summit about 3 months.
I emailed Addco sales explaining that resellers were just fond of holding my money and asked if the 639 was even still made. The response was such that he thought it was almost stupid that I asked. Told me to email them or call and set it up: 2 weeks out, I'd have a new bar.
