Anyone with Addco sway bars?

[ShortysTRM]

I have seen Jeff Jeske post about Addco bars not fitting with 3" exhaust, but I know that companies can change the way thir bars are designed and that sometimes people get bad examples of products. I know the RM bars will fit, but they are still quite small. Addco's sales line said that they usually follow OEM bar paths with larger bars, so the rear bar should follow the original bar's path, as it is not meant to be an add-on. ...Anyone?

With the apexi exh you have get the RM bars...

stock exhaust goes over the axle. 3" and most aftermarkets go under. the Addco will fit if you're using stock or one that goes over the axle (like stock). What exactly is your question?

Well, I was asking if the Addco bar would fit with Apex-i exhaust (under suspension). I am in the middle of installing an Addco front bar on a 93 Grand Am GT and it's been a PITA, so we may hold out on installing the bars on the Eclipse. I would still like to know if it fit, though. Addco claims that they always try to follow stock sway-bar routing, so I figured that their bar would fit with 3" exhaust. The bars from RM a little smaller than we had hoped. The bars on my Grand Am are 1-1/8" (28.5mm) front and 1" rear.

If you have a stock bar and it has clearance around it then the addco should work. The problem I had with the addco was that I have an AWD and the stock AWD bar looked nothing like the addco bar. I would guess it would work with a FWD car as long as you have some clearance around the stock bar. Its funny though....I have no RSB on my car right now and it feels no different than having the stock one. I think I am gonna place an order for the 1" RRE rear sway bar. It should be cheaper than $300 for both RM bars and it should be much more solid.
