Front Sway Bar?? - AcuraLegend.Org - The Acura Legend Forum for All Generations of the Honda / Acura Legend; 1986 to Present

So I have the MLS copy, FUTs rear tie bars, rear sway bar would the front sway bar upgrade provide much benefit at this point?? Can you even purchase the Addco front sway without a GB?

IMHO the greater benefit of the rear sway bar (the lack of push it causes) will be neutralized for a tad bit more stability in the front. i haven't found it to be a worth while investment with out a larger rear sway bar.

ps, i'm pretty sure you can get a fornt sway bar from shox.com

you only need a front sway bar if you feel that the rear of the car is to loose in the turns (slides out kind of like a drift). but your car shouldnt do that, so i don't think you need one.

i have one, cant comment on the handling though

I have one and I didn't care for it much, the rear rocks but the front may not make it to the current build. However if you have an aftermarket strut bar it does add a slight improvement to the cars performance, it was when I removed my strut bar that I became unhappy with the way the sway bar felt. the Strut bar provides balance to the rigidness of the sway bar, of couse this was all in a coupe though too.
