Sway bar upgrade

[hobbybob]

I was thinking of upgrading my front sway bar to something heavier like 1 1/4 inch and adding a 7/8 inch to the rear axel.

I am hoping this will help prevent low speed roll over. has anyone tried this?

What are the pros and cons. would it be worth doing.

I have taken a lot of "fast" corners without even lifting her on two tires...

First check the condition of your current sway bar, along with all the busings associated with it. Also check your body mounts -the do wear out and make it feel like you have uncontrollable body sway. One more thing, be sure your steering system is up to par, if there is delay with input vs feedback, again, it will feel like the Bronc' is uncontrollable.

Generally roll over is caused by a sudden turn in one direction immediately followed by a sudden turn in the opposite direction. The more top heavy the vehicle the easier it is to roll. Keep a good set of shocks on the vehicle and like Jimmey Neutron said check out the existing sway bars and replace worn parts. They should be sufficient for normal turns.

Read this http://mb-soft.com/public/rollover.html . It's sort of technical but worth reading.

Good luck,
