well somebody posted up pics of a 4g install i thought...
if vigor bars fit, what about aftermarket vigor bars? 9or do those not exist?) are they bigger than aftermarket 3g bars?
i can get vigor bars new for about 90 shipped

The cars not off the jack stands from me doing the rear discs yet. I'm going to try and figure something out and see if i can make it work otherwise I'll take it off and run something different.
mmhmmm. from the pics you posted earlier of the rears on the sides, it looks like it attaches to the bolt that goes through the back that holds all the little stabilizer bars on, which is the same attachment between drum and disc. so why exactly doesn't it fit?
and on another note, are the addco, legend, 4g aftermarket, or vigor rear bars bigger? i've seen talk about all four, but no real definitive answer.
well you can get a 22mm rear for the 4g, so i say that wins in the size department
hmmm, so that'd be almost as big as a stock 3gb lx-i front. i know bigger isn't always better, so how would that fit in suspension-wise and affect steering with using the st front bar?
well it would make you much less likely to understeer
i wonder what would happen if somebody threw in a 22mm rear and a stock 3g DX front....3g drifto anybody? :-p
yup way better than the 14mm stock one our 88-89 cars got.

rear stock is 13mm i thought
stock = 13mmand on another note, are the addco, legend, 4g aftermarket, or vigor rear bars bigger? i've seen talk about all four, but no real definitive answer.
addco = 19mm
legend = does it even fit?
3g ST = 16mm
4g ST = 22mm
vigor = 16mm
the 86-87 got a 13mm i think and we got a 14mm. since the 88-89 got upgraded.

hmm i thought 89 was 13" but i dunno
hey what car can i pinch a large rear swaybar off that will fit directly to the rear of my car
hmmmm. very interesting. looks like a full st set will probably be good enough for me unless i go to make this a true competition vehicle.
btw, does the 4g st front fit as well or just the rear?
i dont think the front fits..
oh well then, i guess 3g st bars will have to do. not quite going for the 3g drifto yet.
The caliper is in the place where the end link previously occupied. I think I can just move the bar a little lower and attach it under the bracket or use only one bushing between the bar and the bracket. I've been to busy between work and college to have time to get out there and play with mounting it different ways.
I would like to see some pics of that once it is done. I saw that it wasn't going to fit and I just did not have the time nor patience to make it work. I am really happy and satisfied w/ my 4g ST rear bar. The chronic FWD understeer is gone and I can actually get the rear to come around and rotate if I so wish to.

I looked at the addco bar tonight and got some ideas but I should be able to make it work reasonably easily. I'll have to do some test fitting when i have time to move the jack stands to the rear suspension so it will be compressed when I'm fitting the bar. It looked like I might need to trim a little off of the dust shield but that was it.
hmmm might have to get me one of those then
hmm, promising. maybe addco will be my final decision after all.
the ST rear sway is on backorder at summit, i'm waiting for it to come in early october
