I thought the CR front sway was 392 lb/in


Why not grab the CR rear sway? $65 shipped

yes you are correct!!! so now my Front is 392(CR) Rear is 396(stock)
F/R are almost the same....is it no good?
honestly i kinda like it my setting....when i turn, the car just goes less baby roll for sure i could feel it. about highspeed turn?
i haven't tried it yet, just tested drive in somewhere packing lot with low speed
