Jeremyxe 4 Posted September 6, 2013 Hey guys just wondering if upgrading my sway bars to some whiteline heavy duty sway bars will increase the handing/ ride of my xe ?? Or money not worth spending ? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeremyxe 4 Posted September 6, 2013 Would you recommend the 24mm or 27mm fronts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeremyxe 4 Posted September 6, 2013 Bigger the better by the sounds of it haha , yeah really want to get rid of that 'boat' feel as mine it's fairly lowered aswell . Thanks guys muchly appreciated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottly 475 Posted September 6, 2013 Would you recommend the 24mm or 27mm fronts? Yes I would suggest 27mm on the front no bigger or you can suffer under steer and 24mm on the rear a really well worth it very noticeable when fitted 1 Jeremyxe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy2287 1,886 Posted September 7, 2013 I recommend you change the cars springs to suit the height/center of gravity (CofG) you want. Then your shocks to suit that. THEN go out and test the car and see if it's under steering or over steering. From here you select sway bars to give the car more or less under/over steer. Springs, shocks and CofG will change your "boatyness" the best. Worth looking into anyway. 1 Stevemack reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adrianphu123 73 Posted September 7, 2013 And make sure you replace worn bushes or put the bushes you intend to run with on first. They can make a huge difference to how the car handles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_fahrquhar 2,580 Posted September 9, 2013 Nah just go the man bar on the back. Did that on my eb and had the adjustable set on the full on man setting. Was fucking excellent on dirt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krispy 2 Posted September 10, 2013 I run the discontinued whiteline flatout springs, 24mm sway bar front and rear, and koni shocks, ride is very flat mid corner. my cheap tyres are the weakest link. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stevemack 122 Posted September 11, 2013 Run the large one on the front and leave the rear alone, it will help power delivery to the road. Springs and shockers will help handling heaps. Also get as much castor on the front as possible, will give you neg camber on turn in but won't alter straight driving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
