Boggus Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Does anyone make a beefier rear sway bar for the SHO? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerx78 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 I've not heard of one. If your looking to tighten up the chassis, i'd say look into some polyurethane bushings. They provide performance for the $$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mothball Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Is there a company that makes a full set for the SHO? I haven't really seen any suspension stuff other than the springs for our cars yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpd1151 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 It sure would be nice if a company..... say like ummmmm idk.... Pedder's Would produce a full set up. ALL OF US need to start badgering them with emails, phone calls, etc To start "motivating" them to do so.

Boggus Posted January 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 It would be nice to see front/rear sways, front/rear upper tie bars, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mothball Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I could not agree more with bpd1151 about Pedders or someone like them making their complete package system for us. I would buy it up in a heartbeat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpd1151 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 But, like I said, expressing interest here (within the forums) doesn't do jack diddly do other than perhaps letting fellow owners know that there are others out there, also desiring a similar mod. This is akin to me pestering Mobsteel time and time and time again to produce their matching upper / lower grilles. I bombarded them with emails, phone calls, and had others do the same. I'm glad to say it worked, and they produced them, and have had a decent amount of sales for them (thankfully). Y'all have understand, especially in today's economic environment, small to medium size businesses (hell, even large one's for that matter) are NOT going to even remotely consider a new product application w/o seeing enough interest and/or potential sales, yet alone dumping the money into the R&D'ing if the captured market is small, or not profitable. So heed my suggestions, and EACH of you need to begin opening some sort of dialouge with potential vendors in regards to this matter. Then report back and keep interested owners up to date with your findings. Even post up who specifically you might've spoken with, so that others can follow up with the exact same person. If there's a will, there's a way...... just be persistent about it and good things will eventually head your way.

timbo Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I find the car pretty balanced. Making the rear tighter with a swaybar will cause the rearend to be quite skittish and have off throttle oversteer...a lot. It's not as much of a problem with the FWD bias on the AWD system, but it doesn't help when it's real crazy. I've run setups with thick front and NO rear swaybar and have been quite happy. I hope someone starts making some good poly bushings for this thing. That would help in a many more ways than a swaybar upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boggus Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Also, does anyone make struts/shocks to accompany springs? Just seeing what is out there. However, next on my list is down pipes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First-SHO Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 It would be nice to see front/rear sways' date=' front/rear upper tie bars, etc[/quote'] I am in the process of a traction bar setup for the front and front and rear end links for the sway bars. Parts will be here on Wednesday and should be able to post some pics and if it will work. I will go into more detail next week. bpd1151 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First-SHO Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Good news to hear! Thnx 1st SHO No problem, Darrell and I have the power for 11's, just no traction, so my focus was to look at what the front drive guy's are doing and develop something for our cars. After several months of investigation and calls, I may have something that will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
