    Only HZ had the rear sway bar. For some reason it was deleted on WB.

    Thanks Kiwivan, I see how its set up now.

    Interesting that it was only offered on HZ and not WB. Whats the consensus, are they worth adding? What handling symptoms do they address?

    Cheers

    You can buy the complete kit here in New Zealand for about 290 nz dollars.(on trade me)
    Every one I have spoken to say yes its worth it.
    Certainly stop the bum from swaying.
    When I disconnected the links and took her for a drive it was terrible.

    Cheers Kiwivan

    They stop body roll. I think they have a big effect on coil springs but as Holden dropped them, I guess they didn’t think they did much on leaf springs.

    Maybe on big Holdens but on the LC LJ Torana the rear sway creates oversteer thats why the XU1s didnt run them
    but i can see a rear bar working on a van
    Does any body know if i could get off the shelf rear swaybar to suit a 9 inch in a HZ van ??
