Default the car is completely undriveable...

I jest. They're fat swaybars. They reduce body roll, make turn-in a bit crisper. Good stuff, but it hasn't changed my life. With adjustable coilovers installed and properly scaled your car will handle nicely...for a front-heavy awd porker that is.

A bitch. Getting the "C" shaped links over the ends of the new bar was a struggle. I used a ratcheting strap to squeeze the ends of the swaybar together and a large adjustable wrench to push the links outward and over the ends of the bar...all while lying on my back in a 30 degree garage.

I still don't understand why these are a better option than the Neuspeed rear bar for $150 less.

Default Uh, the fronts are easy. At least, as long as the weight of the car is on the wheels.

Rears aren't bad either, once you figure out where everything goes and get the upper bracket bolts started. Not sure what "Beater" is talking about...

Default do it. you will really appreciate the sways. i put them in after H&R/bilstein, and while the

results were great, they were not as dramatic as i was expecting.
