Okay so I bought a FRPP sway kit from Steve 3 to 4 weeks ago along with the Suspension kit. Had the Suspension installed a week ago, and started to install the Sway kit today and as I was going through the parts it became apparent that I was missing something :? , something crucial :( , the bushing mount clamps. It's like 3:15 in the afternoon on Saturday and chances are these are not stocked by any autoparts dealer since they don't wear out. Called a local Ford dealer 10 mi away to see if they were open and if they had any, they were open but no parts in stock. Crap.... :( So I call Tousley and Steve answers the phone, I tell him what I am looking for which as it turns out he has in stock but only two of them, I want them! 8) Trouble is I am about 70 minutes from Tousley and they are only open til 4 on weekends, Crap again. :( Steve say's he can take my credit card number and set the parts out for me to pick up later(Dealership is still open just not parts), AWESOME! :shock:
So I just finished the rear and will do the fronts tommorow along with painting the front calipers Red.

FORDSVTPARTS FTW! :D

Thanks Steve,

Brian

how does it feel with the sway bars in along with the suspension setup?
I am running the FRPP suspension (springs and dampers) and I am thinking of goign with the sway bars too because she still loves to roll a bit. do they help alot with body roll?

I love my SVT rear sway. I'm craving something bigger tho. I'm assuming the FRPP sway is just SVT sways remarketed for the 05-07 crowd.

Steve does kick ass!! I think he should just branch out on his own company...that would be teh name, STEVE FTW.

I'll let you know when I get the front in, front install is a PITA, well at least a lot more work then the rear and requiring tools that I don't have but can borrow.

FRPP Sway kit is an Eibach kit actually sold through FRPP. I don't know if there is any actual specification difference between the product sold by Ford, made by Eibach, or an Eibach kit. Bar diameters are Front 22mm and rear 25mm very beefy! There is a sticky on fj which gives bar diameters for comparison.

K4 LOX,

I have a day or two of painting to do and let harden before I get to drive the car again.
