Sway Bar Locking Collars

Hey guys, I've been using these locking collars on and off for a few years but kind of always thought that I really didn't need them(only used them bc I payed for them). So my question is have any of you ever used these or felt the need to? For those who have no Idea of what these are they're just locking collars that wrap around the sway bar and sits right against the sway bar bushing and bracket to help prevent the sway bar from moving/sliding out of place.

My sway bars are pretty fixed so they really don't move anyway, but while doing 80+MPH and/or making crazy turns any suspension would and will have some movement. Any thought on these???

Did they really make a difference? I have a couple that came with my bar but didn't bother putting them on. If they actually made a difference then I'll go put them on right now.
 
Made a NICE difference...I mean way better. After I took them off I immediately felt the looseness. I mean my suspension is stiff as it is now but that's how good those collars are. I was just hearing noises that I usually don't hear, as if the collars made it too stiff and or added tension I would say.
 


You wont be mad, take a picture and let me know if it causes any noise. Maybe I did something wrong lol
 
I originally got mines from BMR but they discontinued a lot of stuff for the Wbodys (not bc of design but bc of the manufactuer, I talked to BMR a few days ago). Try WhiteLine.com they're leaders in todays suspension world (one of them anyway). It might be WhiteLinesuspension.com
 


I knew Dee was trying to screw me. Just wait til you guys see the next advice I give him when he's got an issue. :th_biggrin2:

LOL funny, bc I have a question to ask you too about my most recent issue, LOL...Hey but I bought my Collars years ago so I wouldn't have the slightest idea of how much they'll cost today.
