Does anyone know which swaybars/cross-bars for the engine (between the strut towers) will fit the Sprinter/All-Tracs. I could use some improved handling when on tight corners. Lots of Celicas had them, but I wonder if those will fit correctly? |

You can quickly and easily install a Corolla GTS or AE92 front tower to firewall brace in the Carib/Alltrac. Just have to drill a couple of holes in the firewall and install some rivet nuts to bolt it down. I'm more interested in sway bars myself and having just completed a large volume buy with Addco in NC, I was planning to have them made for this application. I may post up a feeler on that one.... |

A large swaybar order?? If so, what diameter and how much will each cost... |

Sorry, I got off topic there... Yeah, I'd like to know more about sway bars too. Not only what suits our wagons but if anyone can find a good write up on HOW sway bars improve handling, I'd sure like to know. Personally I'm looking for an sr5 because it'll most likely have a sunroof but it'll also have the PAS power assisted steering, which I don't want - I want more room in the engine bay for other mod's.. Here's a couple of threads: http://auto.howstuffworks.com/car-suspension3.htm[url] http://autospeed.com/cms/title_Sway-Bar-Shenanigans/A_2746/article.html[/url] I think AE92 seca in australia has same front end not sure about the rear but definitely these cars could do with a stiffer ride & some more control around under steering issues |

I saw a Corolla GTS in the yard the other day with a swaybay in the engine bay, I probably should have scooped it. It looked like it would fit, but I wasn't 100% sure by eyeballing. |
