Okay looking at these now Whiteline does look like a great sway bar.

I'm not running a JDM 20mm RSB and stock front bar with OEM endlinks. I do need new front endlinks so hopefully Santa comes through with some kartboy links.

you learn fast young grasshopper nice work. Remember when you put them on be sure to get a waterproof non spray synthetic grease (I use Amsoil) for the bushings. The bushings are urethane pieced that allow the bar to move if not greased properly they sound like hell and using crappy grease will make them dry out in 4-6 months esp since you are in Mass with all the salt and crap on the roads it drys out the grease. I know this because I am in CT and I have learned the hard way.

 

this is the grease I speak of its not "needed" but I personally recommend it

the one on the left is what i picked up

Funny. I used wheel bearing grease when I did my install last December. Not a squeak or peep since.

Non synthetic grease will work, but will break down poly bushings.

i had bad noise coming from what i thought was the springs when i got the car so i needed it alligned so i took it to a local shop. they said the bushings were dried out and used wheel bearing grease but with the CT roads and winter it dried out fast. when they started making noise again i knew what it was and used the grease above. Nice thing about Cobb sways is that the metal clamp around the bushings have a fitting for a grease gun so i dont need to take them off the car again when they make noise next time

I would suggest regreasing the bushings on a yearly basis too. In the spring when I swap from winter to summer set-up, I spend the 5 minutes to undo the bushing brackets, grease, and put the brackets back on. It takes a few minutes and keeps you from having to replace the bushings. I had front and rear 25mm bars and the bushings were like $20/pair.
It's cool; I'm with the band
