Just wondering if anyone knows the tq specs for the stock front swaybar?

I'm installing my neuspeed bushings in the next few days and just wanted to make sure I have it at the right amount.

Thanks In Advance:)

Hey post if those bushings make a difference.

2k2_nbp_egg how you like the Progress front Sway? You have the rear one too?

Thanks y'all

They're worth it for the amount of money, they give you less understeer and what not.

Together with the X-brace it is better, but that's what you get when you throw another bar in there. Not as great as I thought it would be though, i'll see when my neuspeed swaybar + tiebar combo come here:)

I think this made a big difference on turn in and at the limit of grip. I am glad I got the Neuspeed upper FSTB. I would also like to add the larger front sway, dunno if I should go Progress or Neuspeed. Lemme us know when you get the front sway.
