well, idk if you have a stock front sway bar... but if you DO, then go to :
Never Enough they have the rear addco (new style) for $145.00 shipped. I JUST installed mine this week and it made a HELL of a difference, I'm very impressed.
if you DONT have a stock front bar, either get one off a wrecked car or something, or go Addco for the front as well. ive heard one of the best setup's is the addco rear and the eibach front though.
if you buy both the front and rear addco bars from never enough auto at the same time, you save $30.
I have a 98 sunfire sedan, so my car never came with any sway bars.
So i should get the rear first and try and get the front of a z24 or gt in the junk yard?
Now with the addaco rear sway bar; does it come with everything to install, or do i have to buy some brackets from the dealer????
Thanks

yes, the addco rear comes with everything you need to install.
as for the front bar, i highly suggest just buying both the addco's at the same time, like i said... $30 cheaper and u will not regret it.
ive never installed a front sway bar, so i dont know whats involved in that, but i installed my rear in like an hour. as for finding a stock one, they didnt ONLY come on z24's and gt's... ive got a 95 base model parts car that came with a 2.2 auto and it came with one stock in the front.
I installed a rear Addco on my car first, without any bar on the front. It was neat for a while, but now I'm starting to crave better balance. It really is a good idea to have *something* up front, especially with the Addco being one of the stiffest rear bars available.
I've got a front Addco bar on order so that I can remedy this. The front bars are quite a bit more involved to install than the rear, so I'm probably going to pass the task off to my qualified neighborhood mechanic.
I'm still trying to figure out exactly which extra parts I need, but I hope that will be clearer once I have the kit in front of me.
