Hey all just wondering what front Sway bar you are sporting or what you recommend?

I found a Hotchkis kit that includes the front and the rear, seems decent and I know a lot of people on here run Hotchkis stuff, BUT


Is there anything else out there? I wanted to go with Tanabe as that is what my front strut bar is and my springs, but it doesn't look like they have front and rear sway applications for the xB.

Thoughts, recommendations?

I have been told that the new Hotchkis kit is really nice. www.trdsparks.com has the best price for the kits.

TRD Sparks has the new one, and another one that is a sport sway bar kit (front and rear)

Whats the difference? The older one is way cheaper, is it inferior to the new one they have come out with?

The only difference between the old kit and new kit is the rear bar. Before it was 20mm or 22mm. Now it is a 24mm bar. Some people have upgraded from the old one and can tell a little difference. :ponder:

Plus you are saving about $80 since they have the old kit on clearance. :up:
