Default WS6 Sway bar and DIY PHR ??

Hi,

I thought I read somewhere the front sway bar on a 2001 WS6 is 32mm is that right? Would changing to polyurethane bushings and end links make much difference to bodyroll?

Also where did I read about building my own PHR and does it really make much difference?

Thanks in advance for your advise.

Yes, the factory sway bar is 32mm.

Hope that helps!

Thank you for confirming the 32mm bar for me UMI Performance.

I just refound the guide to the DIY PHR.

So, would changing to polyurethane bushings and end links make much difference on a stock 32mm bar?

Probably, but shouldn't make much of a difference (assuming the bushings you have on there now are not shot).
If you are looking to improve handling shocks are the first thing you should look at with these cars. With quality ones its a night and day difference in handling and ride quality.
