    Crossing ST Swaybar install off my list of...

    things I will never ever do again. total pain. Almost seems like the rear bar just isnt wide enough. Add that to the fact I used Turner reinforcements... Broke the head of the grade 8 bolt that came with the kit.. Next time I will definately go with the IE's. I bought this setup ages ago otherwise I would have just went with the GB price on e30 tech.

    Trust me.. don't f with ST sways.

      I feel your pain. The ST's are a bitch to install, no doubt, and the standard size hardware adds to the frustration. I've heard RD has very nice fitment and great hardware, and I can attest to IE's quality--much better than ST.

      On the rear bar, it feels like it isn't wide enough because you have to push the bushings to the edge of the transverse section of the bar...but once you get it set and torqued down, the fitment there isn't an issue. It's a good thing you got the Turner upper reinforcements; I was told that only the trailing arm reinforcements were needed with a 19mm bar....I was wrong and the upper mount ripped out over time.
