Addco sway bar kit still worth the $$$? and...

[thor999]

does anyone know where I can get the quick disconnects for them? Following this writeup: Addco Anti-Sway Bars - 3rd Gen 4Runner - YotaTech Forums Sounds like a great DYI improvement for me, I have to navigate some treacherous roads to get to work everyday... Yes I have conducted a few searches but am unsure if I am using the correct verbage.

Although this isn't a priority, since my 4runner is my DD I plan on doing this mod eventually along with some quick disconnects.

Exactly. It is actually a safety concern for me here; windy roads going up and down mountains, plenty of snow during winter here.

Switch to poly bushings for your stock sway bar. It will make a big difference, especially if your bushings are factory and worn out

Great advice! Did it last year! Bushings were destroyed, and long overdue at 149k...
However, I only replaced the front bushings, and end links; so would this kit be a worthwhile investment?

I don't know based off experience, but I think this kit with some disconnects would be a worth while investment. I know for daily driving I prefer tighter handling. According to the pictures at the bottom of the link posted below, I would assume the Addco sway bars would make a difference. I mean, his rear wheel isn't even touching the ground in his flex pictures. My original thoughts were that they wouldn't make a huge difference, but after seeing those pictures I'm thinking otherwise.

I can speak from experience, I have them on my 4runner.

HUGE difference, best mod for on the street you can do. My friend drove my truck and said it was totally different than when he drove it home for me when I bought it.

Thanks for this. I'm hoping to enjoy tighter steering with this mod on the road.

Wheelersoffroad puts kits togeter for Front and Rear which are complete kits with bump stops etc..

Also, the steering rack bushings should be replaced as well.
