Hi all,
following the thread (as I can't still post there) http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/3g-upper-lower-control-arms.351043/ I wanted to share my findings for all European guys here.
As you could expect we don't have many 3.0L 3G Eclipses or Galants in Europe, so there's a challenge to source a 19mm rear sway bar (2.4L 3G Eclipses has 18mm sway bar). So after deep research I've found that all European 8G Galants (1997-2003, all trims and engines, including Wagons) has 19mm rear sway bar and some of them has even 20mm ones. The rear chassis/suspension setup on 8G Galants are practically the same as on 2G Eclipses/Talons.
Here are the OEM numbers and modifications you can look for:
MR297627 - 20mm; CENTRAL-EU MODIFICATION: SNGEDL6C, SNGEQL6C, SRGEDL6C, SRGEQL6C
MR272712 - 19mm; All Other MODIFICATION: SNGEQL6, SNGEQR6, SRGEQL6, SRGEQR6
You can take upper/lower control arms of any 8G Galant too as they are tubular also as mentioned in the previous threads. If there will be a request for a full OEM code list for this setup- I can source it.
