Default Rear H-Sport sway is in, starting on the front one... These things are amazing...

-Well engineered, almost over engineered
-Well thought-out design
-Superior quality is obvious.

Nuff said. I'm getting my upper body exercise for the day for sure.

Noticed that one of my front sway brackets was banged up pretty bad from scraping years ago, never made any noise or anything though.

Default Only one thing I can say about H-sports that I don't like......

the grease fittings (great feature!) are installed in a way that they'll be the first thing to hit the road in the front. Rears are just a bit of a pain to get to, but at least they won't get whacked off.

Minor bitchings. Good ****.

Default Front one is done, what a pain it is to line up the bolts where it attaches to the links...

I remember having a pain of a time when I did the ones on the S6, but geez, almost cross-threaded the damn thing.

The fronts were easy on the allroad - it was the rears that took a little longer.

Default I was reading about the sways on the B5 S4 forum...

A couple of the Stasis guys and the guy Tomasz from Start-Up Racing were suggesting to people to just swap out the rear and keep the stock front or even go with a non-sport A4 front. Doing this will help reduce the understeer even more and even promote a slight bit of oversteer.

Not sure if this would be something that you would want or not just tryin to put some info out there.

Default or do both

just saying what those guys were telling people if they wanted more oversteer.

Just the heavier springs isnt going to do as much as the sway bars in combination with it.

Default Fixedwing on the B5S4 forum installed my old non-sport front sway...

it definitely helps create a more neutral/oversteer turn-in. Just with a bit of extra body roll. But different springs/coil-overs can minimize that.
