I want to add a rear sway bar. 1)Where is a good place to get one? What years fit? 2) What would I need aside from the sway bar. It looks like it just bolts to the LCA's.Is that right?

any 94 up rear sway bar will work but i would get one from a 99 up gt or a 96 up cobra they are the same stiffness. I got mine from a 96 mystic cobra for 20 bucks just check a junk yard.

 

[01mineralgrey6]

Cool, Does it just mount to the LCAs?

any sway bar from a 79+ mustang will fit. yes, the lca's have holes already drilled for you. you just need the bolts and the tightening clips to hold it in place

 

[SpectorV]

go to www.maximummotorsports.com and look at the rear sway bars, they are under rear end or something they have a list of the years and what each years settings are, the oem just bolts to the LCAs

Thanks guys!

just remember, you need an actual sway bar before you can get the adjustable one. dont go and buy any adjustable sway bar before you get your hands on a normal one.

I emailed Terry and he had one from a '93, but I just won one on ebay off of a 2002 GT $55 shipped :headbang: any specific torque or just good and tight?
Thanks for the help guys

goodntight works. there's no need for a locking washer either, and i've had mine on and off before and it's always held tight. make sure to get grade 8 bolts though, you don't want them breaking.

 

[01mineralgrey6]

Cool, The guy is sending the attaching hardware too, But Ill make sure that there grade 8.

 

[01mineralgrey6]

Well I got it yesterday, installed it today. Took about 15 mins or so(made me feel better about myself from doing the headers yesterday ) I would would highly recommend doing this. The car feels so much better, corners flater, and its a little more predictable.

Do I need to upgrade my stock front sway bar when getting a 99+ GT rear sway bar? Or are the front swaybar off a GT the same as what I have now? Thanks.

 

[01mineralgrey6]

Im not sure, All I did was add a 2002 GT sway bar on the rear, and it made a big differance. Im sure an upgraded front sway bar would compliment the rear.

 

[Shahrum]

Ok that's mainly what I wanted to see, if you upgraded your front or not. But considering you didn't, and it still made a BIG difference, then I definately think it will be worth it. Especially considering I just ordered my springs, I think a $50 rear sway bar would be a nice compliment to this stage 1 of suspension mods.

Can anyone confirm if the stock V6 front swaybar is the same as the stock GT front swaybar?

 

[Rick0636]

I dont' think so, see if you can find that chart on MM, I couldn't find the thing, I had cobra front and rear bars on my V6 and had cobra front and rear on the GT, I don't have a rear bar on the GT any more, can't use one with the IRS, still have the Cobra front bar though.

Hey guys,

Will this work? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33583&item=2466787062#ebayphotohosting Or not because the 03 Cobras have IRS?

 

[Danger Dude]

NO it will not work on a live axle like we have

Sorry

 

[Rick0636]

I didnt' even think the IRS had a rear sway bar, now I am not so sure, this guy seems to have taken an IRS unit apart in a lot of pieces, not sure why he did that, maybe thinks he can sell it for more in pieces, lol.
