swaybar and trailing arm questions.

[Silversurfer Gio]

OK, so so I've searched the hell out of these two subjects and havent really come across anything definitive, so I decided to just flat out ask in my own thread. Question 1- what size sway bars would a 2000-05 Monte carlo ss(non-supercharged) have? question 2, will trailing arms from a gxp bolt directly into my 2001 gtp? Been doing some junk yard searching for some good cheap suspension upgrades and just wanted to make sure I'm looking for the right stuff.

Question #2 is yes

Edit: also the Monte Carlo SS that came with the ls4 also have the same bars that you can use.

I have a third question(again searched the hell out of it with no results). What do the gxp trailing arms look like? Are they tubular, are they rectangular? Are they worth putting on over the stock stamped ones? I don't want to get the dorman arms or the umi or bmr arms. Trying to keep the car as GM as possible.
Sorry Im kinda weird like that.

I like to keep the car as GM as possible too. Tubular is definitely worth the upgrade over the ****ty stamped ones. The original GXP trailing arms were tubular but the replacements are boxed. If you see any tubular T/A, then they are most likely GMPP

Thanks for the info man. I appreciate it

Figured I'd do a follow up, I got a set of trailing arms out of one of the gxp's from the junkyards by my house, neither one had tubular trailing arms. But the arms that they did have were still pretty strong, its a solid square rod, so I cleaned them up, painted them and bolted them right in. 30 Bucks well spent.

Sadly my trailing arms are originals to my knowledge there square ones....maybe some Gxp got tubulars but I have yet to see one

Solid square rod? Sounds like dorman
