Default Sway bar's

Hi everyone, well my rear sway bar is starting to squeek like a b*tch so i figure why not get me a new set and just get it out of the way. I've been looking around and people are saying to go with the 1LE setup but im only able to find a good price for the front sway bar. Ive also looked at hogkins setup, over in thunderracing and it looks prety nice. Oh yea and also ive herd to put hollow in front and solid in back. Anyone know of a really nice setup for street/drag?

Hi

I think you can get the 1LE swaybars from GMdirect. They are about $200.00. The Hotchkis set is probably twice that amount. I ordered a set of the Hotchkis and I am waiting for them now. Also, have a look at Spohn and BMR. They have setups for drag.

First get a big front bar.
Solid 35mm is about $140.
Hollow 35mm is about $200+shipping.
Get that on the car and see how it handles.
If the handling is balanced, leave the rear bar alone.
