FS: rear sway bar - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

soulcrusher500 · 2006-03-02, 10:51 PM

Anybody want a slightly rusted but functional white line rear sway bar with the HD end links? It's the 20,22,24 adjustable model.The end links are not the new super bomber ones but the older cheezy ones. They still work well though. I know it will at least fit the 02 and 03 wrx. I would assume it would fit newer as well. $100 OBO. PM me.

You upgrading?

Sort of...I got a Legacy GT wagon.

Will that fit the STI ? happen to know the stock size? are the end links too beat / cheezey for massive abuse ?

I think it will fit an STI, but not positive. The end links are not beat but I think there have been reports of breakage under heavy use. They use much heavier duty links now.

The sway bar should be fine on any '04 STI, but the '05 and newer cars use a different style endlink.

I have the same bar on my WRX and after 3 years it was looking a bit on the worn-out side, so I took it off the car hit it w/ some heavy grit sandpaper to clean it, then some light grit sandpaper to prep it, and then put like 8 coats of krylon on it and it's as good as new now... and it even looks like a Cusco bar now since all I had on hand was dark blue paint.

A $100 and 20 minutes of work over the course of an afternoon and someone can have a bar that's as good as new.

Also, those old-style endlinks should be fine if you're not autocrossing, and even then, they're probably good enough if you're running the bar on a softer setup.
