So what are you guys running in the front then? Stock sway? I'm even seeing no sway in the front.

Found them on Ebay. The seller is a dismantler and has a few listed for only $75...not sure if they are all gone or not. Seemed too cheap not to give it a try!

I just got mine in the mail yesterday, from Flying Tomato. Can't wait to install it. Waiting for some new hardware and bushings to come.

What hardware/bushings are you going with for the bar?

I got new bolts, spring washers, and some 21mm poly Kevlar bushings.

Currently stripped my bar and am going to por15 it. Just waiting on the paint to get here.

Nice, I was thinking of repainting mine as well. Is the install pretty straightforward?

From what I hear the rear not hard. I was checking it out while under the 964, it's right there, nothing in the way or anything. Hmmm....wonder if I should replace those lock nuts? The only replacement I found for those are the Porsche ones, not sure if there is anything special about them. It's just the pitch Porsche uses on them is unique. Usually they are 1.75 vs the 1.5 Porsche used.

The front on the other hand is a PITA.

to do the front, removing the lower control arm from the knuckle makes the job 100 times easier. and this wont affect alignment.

Yeah, I was thinking about just purchasing new hardware and replacing it all. If the bolts are in the same shape as those on my secondary/cat then they will likely need to be replaced anyway!

I'd replace them while you're at it. Won't hurt. I bought a bunch of Grade 8 M8 bolts and some spring washers. Actually have a ton of them now LOL! Could only get them in bulk.

Looked into that lock nut. It's part #99908444501 now.

Back in the day I replaced both in the C4 when I did the KW V3 suspension... I didn't know better so I splurged on a 24mm front and 26mm rear from H&R. Sounds like that was overkill?
