Finally got to drive with the rear sway installed

World of difference

I'm on the softest setting, drives much more secure and planted, flat in turns and gone is the fun fun fun rear axle hop if taking a turn (like a highway onramp) on bumpy/uneven surfaces

What do these do for ground clearance?

I know the TRD sway bar on the Tundra really take away a lot of the clearance. Any similar issues here?

Ground clearance - bar is slightly higher than the rear diff in center but is the lowest point as you near the wheels

Sorry but I'd hardly call the G8 a sleeper. That damn thing can be heard from a mile away. 6.0 were pretty nice cars. GM screwed the pooch on that one, twice.

You've not heard the G8GT with stock axlebacks then...it's very quiet, even with LT Headers.

For those that have purchased, where did you buy??

Autoplicity and SD Truck have the lowest prices I've seen.. but they also have a lot of negative feedback/reviews.
