AWD Sway Bar thread

[Wombatkarl]

16mm is the standard size I put an 18mm Mako bar on my TJ AWD Stopped the understeer Mako is made by the original selbys owner in Nowra I dont think i would go bigger than 20mm....Might get a little tail happy

Still miffed I got that bar diameter wrong.

But, running 22mm on my AWD and it's great. No oversteer, even in the wet. Understeer = zero.... measured it myself, so it could be more or less.

Thanks for steering me in the direction of Nowra.

I have lived near there for almost 3 years, but I never knew about this.

Doing homework for this led me to Selby Suspension at Nowra,

https://www.selbysuspensionnowra.com.au/

who is now just a retailer/wholesaler of suspension/brake parts, but I got a slightly better deal on my new 18mm bar than going direct to the manufacturer who is, as you know, also in Nowra.

The 2 places are separate businesses.

Thanks again.

I got a better purchase price than from MAKO, and I don't have to pay freight as I will pick it up when I go to Nowra for other shopping.

$250 all up.

What was the quality of the paint like?

My swaybar works great, can't fault it there, but when it arrived it looked a a daycare Center painted it then threw it down an elevator shaft. Packaging was good, so I can only assume it left the shop in that condition.

It's still about 2 weeks away.

I will post a piccy when it arrives.
