V6 Sway Bar setup? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

d_jensen35 · 01-30-2016, 10:01 PM

I have a 2015 RS and am looking to stiffen up the ride and hopefully eliminate the majority of the body roll and mushy feeling when cornering. Any suggestions on a good away bar setup for fairly cheap? thanks in advance

We ran 1LE sway bars front and rear on our V6 (without BREMBOS) and for $150ish per bar plus links its a great upgrade

d_jensen35 · 01-31-2016, 10:25 PM

Do you have the part numbers for the bars that are compatible w the V6?

justjoshin · 01-31-2016, 10:39 PM

Front Sway Bar (1LE) - 22812946
Rear Sway Bar (ZL1, 1LE) - 22786260
Rear Sway Bar Endlink (SS, ZL1, 1LE) (2) - 22761221
Front endlinks are the same as you have now

I run the ZL1 sway bars and they do great for me. I went ZL1 bars since I was staying staggered with my wheels. I'm sure there are better aftermarket bars but I don't race in the twisties so for me they are all I'll ever need. They definitely took care of all that body roll the V6 comes with.

Ask BMR..... talk to phastek..etc

KaBoom1701 · 02-01-2016, 09:28 AM

Go with the ZL1 set up as you RS has a staggered wheel set up.

Or contact BMR or Apex or any one of our great C5 vendors here.

For anyone that has sway bars: Do you feel a difference in everyday driving? And how much weight do they add?

justjoshin · 02-01-2016, 02:45 PM

I have the 1LE bars and noticed a difference right away. They do weigh more but I don't think it is enough to think about.

d_jensen35 · 02-01-2016, 07:00 PM

I found both sway bars and links for like $260, seriously debating pulling the trigger on this. How much of a difference does it really make for those who are running the zl1 bars?

yzark99 · 02-02-2016, 10:54 PM

I put a ZL1 front bar and end links on my 1LT, and the rear bar is stock. There is a S curve onramp near me that used to be squirrely at 30 MPH, but now I routinely take it at 55 without any body roll. The car corners like it is on rails now.

jrjose107 · 03-14-2016, 05:19 PM

So this is a bolt on no other modifications needed?

I have BMR 3way adj bars, Awesome for track use, now I just need to upgrade the struts. FE2 struts, are ok for about 15 min, they get hot then the car starts to push.
