Stock Sway Bars
Sunday, May 31, 2009 12:21 PM
I have been told that some Sunfire GTs or convertibles came equipped with factory rear sway bars. Is this true, and if so, where can I get one to fit 2000 Cavvy - I know I can get aftermarket but really need OEM if they are available. Thanks.

no it is not true

no 3rd gen 95-05 ever came wiht a factory rear sway bar

the 3rd gen convertibles came with a factory fron STRUT BAR but no rear sway bar they stopped putting rear sway bars on in 94

actually, some cars came with a factory "stiffening bar" that was welded into the rear trailing arm/axle. you'd need to be able to cut/weld, or swap the whole axle.

Both of my Zs have the extra bar welded in the rear axle assembly.
