• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Vogtlands vs Eibach

I think I'm just gonna buy a junkyard GMPP... honestly in the beginning of this thread I didn't even wanna run a thicker front bar, instead just do poly bushings on the stockers. But eventually I learned that with this chassis the front really won't lose any grip even with a thicker front bar, since it leans so much... if anything it'll probably gain with less body roll thus both front tires keeping more contact with the road... I don't think the 33 mm vs 34 mm will make a difference to a point where I can actually feel it. I'll buy the GMPP now since it's ridiculously cheap and if for whatever reason I don't like the balance I'll switch to dorman or maybe even stock.

Not sure where you are located, but check the junkyard sway bar good before removing for any signs of rust. While this is a very good and cheap alternative to buying new this job is quite a pain for a novice. Most likely the cradle has to be dropped in the rear a few inches if you cant snake it in there, at least it did when I installed the Dorman on the Impala(should be the same). I've been wrenching for 30 years, and it isn't a fun job but totally doable for anyone with the time and tools. Then you get to repeat the process on your car.

To each his own I guess, I still say it's worth a few more pounds to have solid bars, especially in the rear. I'd be willing to bet the 22mm solid Addco out performs the 25mm hollow Addco. I don't know on the 25mm, but the 22mm has quite a few less bends to it compared to GMPP and stock, so that'd make it stiffer for sure. Post pics of the 25mm when you get it if you don't mind.
