Default Sway Bar tomorrow...

I am getting my PSK rear sway bar put on tomorrow...at the dealer..

Did you guys request the old one back? I am getting paranoid that they will fake me out and not install it...Do the two bars look similar?

Default I don't think they look that different...

At least, not unless you have them side by side. The stock (non-sport) bar is 16mm in diameter. The PSK is 18mm - so you could measure the new one if you like.

I just got mine from Clair, but it'll have to wait to the weekend since I'm putting it on myself.

I just got the bar...per the part number...

I have seen the various posts on bushings etc...

I should be fine with just the bar right? I don't need any bushings...right?
