Sway bar swap question

**Shadow19** · 10-25-2009, 05:15 PM

So im going to get one heck of a deal for my rear sway bar swap. I just dont know if i want the tiny tiny little bitty 2g sway bar. I was looking at the 8g sway bar and it looked damn close to the 2g one. It wasnt off of the GTZ but it was way bigger than the 2g one. Now can that be used on the 7g or is only the GTZ sway bar? I know i have to use the other stuff from the 2g but i was just wondering.

Dude, I still have the sway bar I picked up for you back in the day. Its 8g 18mm sway bar with control arms and all the other stuff. Its missing one end link.

i have that "tiny" 2g gst 1 from mko on my car now and that thing made the car so much better.. so what im saying is.. even that little thing is fine

15mm isnt that bad at all. Some Eclipses came with 12mm sway bar, just like the 94 GS. Now thats tiny

yeah i have a pair of GS rear swaybars and they are in fact tiny... but they were better than no swaybar at the time !!!

Yea this one is about as big around as my pinky. I guess what ill do is pull one off of the 8g and fit it to the 2g and see if it works. If it fits it fits. If not its only 25 bucks and like you guys say its better than nothing.

Yea. I just wasnt sure if it had to come from a GTZ or not. Ill snatch the 8g one when i go back. I cant wait to feel the difference this is going to make.
