grannyknot Posted April 9, 2016 Share #1 Posted April 9, 2016 Does anyone make a rear mounted rear sway bar for our Z's anymore? All I can find is MSA's combo but I'm pretty sure that is a front mounted rear bar. Once you weld in the BadDog rail extensions it's hard to find a place to mount the forward mounted bar without spacers of some kind.

gnosez Posted April 11, 2016 Share #9 Posted April 11, 2016 Even without the Bad Dog rear rails you need a spacer for the ST rear sway bar. What you can't use is the stock (OEM) sway bar that mounts on the body behind the seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the way the rear mounted sway bar is up and out of the way. Installing driveshaft bolts with the sway bar in the way is a real pain.

gnosez Posted April 13, 2016 Share #11 Posted April 13, 2016 Didn't think it was, only stating the cold hard truth regarding those very nice ST rear sway bars - they need an off-set. I have them on my street Z with nearly a 1/2 inch spacer to make them line up right, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
