now, if i wanted to replace it.. there's a few options that I know of...
the FMS one that looks exactly like the stocker, but with a different bushing...
a boxed upper...
and one that looks like a rod with 2 spherical heim joints on each end.
whats the main advantage/purpose of going with one of these over the other?
wouldnt the fms one still allow for unneeded flex?
just trying to make an informed purchase

no for you, if you want to corner, should get a panhard bar + torque arm.
I'd say yea just get the ones with stiffer bushings.

off topic but.. what does the rear sway bar really do? will you run any better in the quarter mile by not having it?
Thanks.
