Default O-bar /rear sway bar/ NEW

New, never installed O-bar rear sway bar.

"The Rear Sway bars are styled to increase the torsional rigidity of the stock axle on VWs. By doing this, it will decrease understeer, improve road grip, and reduce body roll. The bars are held in place by 4 Bolts that will be drilled through the axle." See O-bars.com for more info.

$100 new. Will sell for $50 plus shipping.

Here is a pic. I estimate shipping to be about $25 US. That is just an estimate using the weight and dimensions on UPS.com. If you are interested I can get an exact shipping cost. Please provide your postal code.

thanks.

This is a steal gang. I've had one installed for over 4 years, and it has been great.

Huge difference in handling and no worries of ripping it out with a lowered car.

Someone should jump on this, it's a great product..

BTW, installation instructions can be found on the manufactures website...

Glad to hear the good review...I checked out the site, and shouldn't be too tough to install, any tips there?

Three Robs, one thread...weird.

Great write-up, and you will definately want to have some marine grease on hand when you install it..

Enjoy........TechnoTrix'd......

Hanging inthere, Ian, thanks for asking. Going thru more changes in the last 6 months than I have in the last 12 years is really quite the shock to the system. I keep saying I'll be around more, and never get a chance...I Miss Everyone on here!! Well, mostly everyone.

Might as well make it 4 Robs in a thread.

Bump for a nice economical rear sway. I met the guy that makes these in Alb NM. Good guy.
