Hi, just wondering if anyone knows if, or has tried to use a pre gen 3 rear sway bar on a Gen 3 rear axle?
I haven't, and I don't know anyone that has.... but the idea of it is pretty much equivalent to trying to use a Honda sway bar on a Ferrari.
There's a very good reason why the third gen bar is made... because it fits the third gen cars.
Yeah, that's why the 3rd gen never came with a stock rear sway bar right. And I'll say it for all of us...don't Use Honda and Ferrari in the same sentence plz.
Back to the thread...
Has anyone heard of this working? The stock 94 z24 sway bar looks similar to the Adco rear AFTERMARKET bar.
Thanks
Ok, fine. I'll stop with the analogies then.
Here it is in plain english: NO it won't work. If it would, there would be no need for aftermarket suppliers to make different bars for the second gen than they do for the third gen. END OF F'N STORY.
ANYWAYS, has anyone TRIED to make another bar fit? Excluding John Lenko
i think you will find while having the same style of rear trailing axle, the one bar is a fair bit longer then the other. i just can'e rember which is longer then the other.
well the fact the 1st and 2nd gen use coil springs and shocks seperate from each other
and the 3rd gen uses coil spring shock combo , like the fronts
and the 95-05 did come with a rear swaybar , it is inside the V of the rear trailing arm , it was on the FE3 equiped cars , ie......... Z24 , GT , and LS sports
FE0 and FE1 do not have the rear bar
also it is perminatly welded into the V section
i think they're talking about aftermarket bars. as in the ones that attache using hardware. not the factory 3rd gen bar.
John: Be nice! BTW: Nice new sig, I like it.
Mark: You're not asking a specific enough question, which is why you're getting a "bad answer".
Can any sway bar be made to work with enough time, effort, and money; of course yes. Will it then benefit handling, probably not.
Can the 1st/2nd gen RSB be bolted straight on; no not at all.
All I was wondering was, the pre 95 J's have a rear sb. Its ass end is wider then the gen 3...but I donno.
