I'm in the midst of replacing all front and rear suspension parts - have everything ready except for the sway bars. I put in an order 3 months ago with Jegs (they and everyone else shipping from manufacturer) and they kept extending the ship date by a week or two after they initially failed to ship - then the other day they reset the ship time to the original 1 month estimate so I cancelled the order since they couldn't give me a straight answer on when they'd ship or what the delay had been. To be fair I'm not sure anyone else will be able to give me a straight answer on shipping date either - any ideas? I'm looking for new
front addco 2196
rear addco 650

Or any other pn options people were happy with, that are more available? My suspension is worn out several places and inside of tires are smooth - need to replace tires but must fix suspension first. I'll put together a post of what parts I used and where I got them from once I figure these last two out and get it done. :turkey:

Looking through the forum again - I knew a lot of people went with addco's (which is why I picked them) but that's actually all I seem to be seeing. I guess for now I'll give addco a call and see what they say

Addco only seems to produce panther bars once or twice a year so it can be frustrating waiting for them to bend some. ADTR is making bars through Eibach I believe. Don't know anything other than that. Check out ADTR's web site to gleen more skinny.

I've got a set of brand new Addco front and rear sway bars that I won't be using on my Marauder.
Problem is.....shipping them to you if you want to buy them.
They are bulky and heavy!

I was surprised to see that Orielly's carries a replacement Dorman sway bar for the rear, but it's less thick than the Marauder bar. I believe it's 15 or 16mm.

Jeg's had a friggin' great special on them last year, but they were backordered beyond belief and I got frustrated and bought a used Addco.

Yes annoying thing with Jegs was they would not give me a straight answer, just kept moving the ship date each time I followed up. I would possibly wait on them but I don't trust them to give me a real date - after 3 months they just reset the timer when I told them to get a real estimated time frame from Addco.

Anyways thanks for the replies I will check out the other options posted - also will send you a PM Joe.

I got mine from ADTR a few months ago... They should be in stock. Needless to say a big upgrade over stock. Same price as Addco .
