how is the stranoparts 35mm front and 22mm rear sway bar kit...performance, craftsmanship, reliability, value etc...

and how exactly would i go about mounting a 22mm sway bar to a moser 12 bolt axle tube...all the kits i can find are for 21mm bars????

Thanks coolformula.

The bars are Black Powdercoated. The endlinks and bushings are all new (bushings are urethane, links are upgraded to a larger size for more strength). The only issue we ever have is with the front u-bracket. The stamping die is wearing out, and sometimes the hole is not quite large enough for the bolt to pass. But 5 seconds with a file cures that (and yes, I'm aware of this and trying to get Addco to address it).

As for mounting. My bar wil mount anywhere a GM bar will. The rear bar also comes with new bushings. So if your 12-bolt will accept the GM bar it will accept mine. If you need some other hardware to mount a GM bar, just get is and use my mount bushings and U-brackets instead of the ones included in the kit (or just get the new relocation mounts if that's what you need. However--and I don't claim to know tons about 12-bolts, I believe it might only be the 9" rears that need such a kit. I personally just made sure the bars fit like stock, figuring that covers the most bases.
