Default Installed 1LE front swaybar today

Installed the front 1LE swaybar today with the car on jackstands in the driveway and it is AWESOME

I need to pick up new endlinks for it but I threw it in with the old endlinks just to get everything done. It works REALLY well. Big difference from the stock bar and a HUGE difference from no bar hehe.

I just need to get the springs cut and installed (I think I am going with 1.25 cut all around) and get a new alignment and I'll be good to go

Getting excited now!

I'll post pics when I am all done! (Also putting in stock rear with 3.73's, and getting 20% tint all around)

Cheers,
Chris

Is there any HUGE performance difference in the 1LE bars: front,rear and panhard compared to the BMR's for example ?
There is a huge amt. of difference in price.
I do not drag @ the track or plan on autocrossing but I do like to hook it up on the street against the stangs and fart cannon mobiles.
TIA.

You'll love the handling in the car. It will handle like it should've to begin with. I love my 99' Z28 1LE. You oughtta' try to install some Koni shocks, because that's what 1LE's came with. You won't be disappointed there, either.Stiffen up your center bushings. LG Motorsports sells polyurethane center bushings, plus 1LE's came with urenthane endlink bushings, and harder durometer rubber suspension bushings. Good luck

I got the 1LE sway bar with my SLP Level 1 kit... it was a great improvement! Even better with the Prothane endlinks and bushings.
