Sway Bars??

[ESC]

I have been looking for different setups of sway/anti-roll bars kits and I just saw the one in the video and I know theres a thread about the suspension the guy use but I am just intersted in the sway bars this ones look much softer and there probably not design for the wraith but maybe theres a similar one.

I just wanna know your opinion and experience about it

Seb's Axial Wraith, Custom suspension, all in the name of performance, nothing else matters - YouTube

Its about min. 7.30

I have the hot racing sway bar and I didn't like how stiff it was but I just ground it down with a bench grinder and now it's great.

Thats what I'm gonna do with my axial sways to acheive full flex again.

[Sneakretly]

Yeah I have almost full flex now and absolutely no body roll in the corners

How did you do it?? Do you have a thread or a pic??
Or you just basiclly bend it until it was soft??

[Sneakretly]

I didn't bend it at all I used I used a bench grinder to grind it down so it would twist easier. The softest one that came with it has a 30mm slot I think. The one I made is ground down all the way on one side and has a 20mm notch on the other side if that makes sense. Here are some pics.

Softest original swaybar.

My custom swaybar.

Sorry for the crappy pics I took them with my iPod touch.

hmmm, id like to see it mounted!
im at the start of my custom sways, just cant pay 45.00/set.....made of goldbar? jeezus!! :P

I thought the same thing and tried to make my own swaybar set but it didn't work out so I just broke down a bought it.

I just installed the Axial sway bar last night and I thought the soft bar was still a tad stiff. Great idea. Thanks

Run it for a little bit, it will soften up.

Lever arms will be the hardest part. The torsion bar is super easy, even if you have to bend one like I did.

Thanks so far it's working out great.

[ESC]

Do you use front/rear or just front??

[Sneakretly]

I use both but I think I'm going to take the rear off.

i was going to stay away from swaybars all together but after a few runs with my shitty nimh stickpack, it kept fliiping over. so now i have no choice but to try to combat this and run em'

who knows...ill probably fail like the rest at this but maybe another company will issue sways for a wraith that dont cost a kidney?
