Sway Bar Success!
Thanks for the install help. I'm a chesty 6'1 230 and I installed them on the ground, but backed up on a couple of 2X4s for the final torqueing.
I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains CA and drive on windy roads daily. I'm really happy with the HHR but the stock suspension was pretty mushy. The sway bar really helped the cornering stability. I have no interest in mods to gain a few percent of this or that, this was defineately worthwhile.

anti sway
Well I finally broke down and ordered my anti sway bar from socal this weekend. I have been trying to decide what to do next and as much as I wanted to order the CGS it's gonna have to wait till I get this done. I know you folks said it's an easy install and I hope you're right because this is something I've never done before but I do a lot of highway driving and I'd like to have better control at high speeds. They drive like maniacs here in Michigan and you've got to stay on your toes all the time.

I've never been in more aggressive driving in all my life than when I went through Detroit And I'm a Boston driver, you know, we are called Mass holes for a reason!
New York, New Jersey, got nothin' on Detroit!
The Anti swaybar is our friend, and boy do you need it
Drive safely.
