If you buy from a good vendor and use a good quality lube, you will not have any squeaks. Of course they need to be installed correctly, too.

I have the full Steeda suspension setup on my car (except for 2 parts) and put my car thru the Tail of the Dragon 2.5 weeks ago and have zero squeaks. It is as quiet as it was when stock.

A little birdie told me there's more coming very soon. He still won't let me beta test any of it, though... [emoji22]

Do any of these aftermarket sway bars develop squeaks? I had a set on another car many years ago, and I had to disassemble the bushing clamps several times a year to lubricate them. Don't want to have to do that again. Thanks!
A lot of that is a warped or twisted bushing. never an issue with rubber but sometimes with the harder bushings one can be out of wack just a little. You can also drill and tap the metal and put in grease zirks in most brands.

Edit that I was thinking control arms man...sorry but maybe one of your bushings isn't setting up right in the bracket. Use the Energy Suspension lube it's best.

Steeda, hands down.

Adjustments (4 on front and 3 on rear) is a big enough reason. Plus, I feel confident the Steeda are better in quality. I saw their manufacturing facility and processing. Sold me, hand downs, no questions asked. Granted, I own just about all the Steeda suspension parts except for the G-Trac and rear IRS subframe braces (they will be ordered soon enough) and I always recommend them as their quality and performance is top notch. I am not sponsored by them either, so it is honest feedback.

CJ pony shows them for $389....but the page to order them wont load

http://www.cjponyparts.com/mustang-suspension/c/60170000/

I just went to the site, hit "add to cart" and nothing happened. So, I hit "add to cart" again. Still nothing.

Then I went to my shopping cart (which had no indications that there was anything in it) and there were 2 sets of the bars.

So, CJPonyparts does have them for $389. I'd love to get them, but I just bought a tune, so my play money is done for a bit...

Replacing the Performance Pack (GT&EB) bars with aftermarket versions is DEFINITELY a good move, and something that is very noticeable. These S550's especially love a lot more rear bar rate.

All of the brands will work well, really.

As for the BMR SB043 Bar Package, for the $380 price tag you get Black Anodized Billet Aluminum front saddles with grease fittings standard, and you also get grease fittings on ALL 4 bushing mounting points. We learned 20 years ago that poly bushing mounts need grease fittings.

Our S550 Bars work very well. Here is Don Creason tearing up a course with our suspension:

https://video-mia1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/h...=c7177e12dba59c7941a695c96ed6199c&oe=55B7C143

Don has made it very clear that our suspension system is the best modification he has ever done to his vehicles.

We also have our bars on our Performance Pack GT, that we push very hard on 295 Hoosiers at both Sebring and The FIRM. This car has only suspension and tires, and rips off low 2:30 times at Sebring.

Speaking of Sebring, to our knowledge - the only S550 to consistently turn SUB 2:30 lap times or better (On STREET TIRES at that), also uses our SB043 Sway Bar Package.




We (BMR) have a very impressive street and track record in both GM and Ford platforms.

Things are kicking off great for us in the S550 market, with our parts already being used / chosen for the fastest Handling, Standing Mile, and Drag oriented cars. :cheers:

Results may vary, but they don't lie.:thumbsup:

This link seems to be working fine for me:

They add to cart and everything with no issues. :shrug:

Just got these in the mail and I am not going to install them. I think the pp bars are fine for now. Money will go towards my kw v3.
