(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  JBR Rear Sway Bar Review You have got to be kidding me... I installed my JBR sway bar last night. and Fuck... Why did I not do this first. I'm astounded. My pu is completely different. It literally feels like I'm driving on another chassis. This bar is insane. I have it set on the stiffest setting and DAMN!! I threw my car on to a 90 degree corner on la tuna canyon last night and it felt like it was on fucking rails, the rear end didn't flare out and the understeer was almost non existent. I can usually pull said corner off at 65-70 and I drift side ways with the tires screaming to the second lane. With this bar installed I hit it at my usual speed but it stayed on its line and managed to hold in the first lane without much protest from the tires. I was totally not expecting that at all. There was a possum in first lane and I thought I would understeer around it, nope... it died. I ran the car up to a high speed on the freeway and did a little maneuvering and took a few bumps, the car feels a lot more steady and solid. I also did a lower speed quick 180 and I felt one of my rear wheels leave the ground  This is my favorite upgrade to date. The bar is beautiful. Considerably thicker than stock and powdercoating is flawless. @jbarone You're the man!  My hats off to your company for an excellent product and excellent service. Time to go to the track. This should be everyone first mod. JBR and Mpettograsso like this. |
