Default Suspension Techniques #55335

I was shopping for sway bars yesterday and noted that for replacement bars finding the brackets for the rear is next to impossible. After visiting several different vendors websites I came up with this part number for a Suspension Techniques kit, #55335 for about $45. Has anybody used it? Also I changed out struts and have the type with the slot for camber adjustment, will these or the stock adapters work on the eccentric bolt?

Thanks for that 12volt. Do you know of anybody who has used these and if they fit on struts that have the camber slot.

FYI: I ordered the Suspension Techniques front and rear sway bar kit #52002 from Jegs. The kit comes with everything to mount the sway bars except the two bushing brackets and bolts that attach the rear bar to the frame. It included brackets that attach to the struts and links to work with the ST bar. The ends of the bar are parallel to the ground like the front bar so the link is a bolt/heim end affair. Now I have to find a pair of the brackets or modify a universal set to fit. While I was at it I ordered a set of St lowering springs. The advertized drop is 1.2 " as opposed to 1.3" for the Eibachs (?).

Be careful on them lowering springs...i ordered a set for my neon, and they raised the car 2" instead of droping it 1.3

Did you get the right parts? Perhaps the manufacturer put them in the wrong box.
