LC200 HD sway bars ?!

[maujkar]

Fellow LCers

A friend of mine shared a Chinese forum link which shows the installation of a HD sway bars , made in AU. I have not seen this upgrade in many builds posted here and elsewhere, but the Chinese owner claims reduction in body roll and better handling.

Has anybody experienced this upgrade before? Any useful benefits for the lifted LCs? Appreciate all out tech elaboration

I would think that you would want less resistance in a sway bar for a rough terrain vehicle unless that vehicle traveled primarily on hard packed/paved surfaces and heavily loaded.

For a vehicle where the intent is to travel on uneven, even washboard surfaces I believe that compensation with heavier rate springs would be preferable to a more resistant sway bar.

Again, if the vehicle operates primarily on harder surfaces, and at consequently higher speeds, then a stiffer sway bar would provide handling benefits. Especially if the vehicle's center of gravity is raised (by a lift kit).
