RS4 Rear Sway Bar Install

Best price I've seen new is ECS.

ya I was looking at that but it doesn't include brackets, so I guess I'd need to buy those separately. Probably way too late to hope for a group buy discount

The ECS kit for $130 includes everything ( sway bar, bushings and brackets ). Also I didnt read through all the pages so not sure if it's different on my 2008 A4 Avant but the bolts at the end of the bars are 16mm and the bolts holding the exhaust hangers are 13mm unlike the first page instructions... But everything else was spot on. Install was super easy with this DIY. The most difficult or time consuming part was wiggling the original bar out, everything else was simple. Great mod, would recommend it to anyone.

Thanks! it was hard to tell because the picture doesn't show it. Do you know another place to buy it for a similar price? I just saw ECS has an ETA arrival of April 13th

Yeah the only way you can tell is if you scroll down and click on what's included. No I was waiting on ECS also but got lucky and found someone who bought the kit from them but never installed it. ECS was the best price I could find prior to that.

Thanks for the help! I guess I'll just keep my eyes open in the classified, considering everything else is 170+

just installed last night, took a couple hours only because a couple of the bolts had completely rusted and had to be carefully taken out. Handles very well, 90 degree curve (15mph advised) at 47mpg before any tire noise

Thanks for the write up

Finished up a hour or so ago. Only one bloody knuckle and two scratched up forearms. Sadly the car is still on stands so I won't be able to go for a test drive.

Your gonna enjoy the difference. It isn't the same as putting in all new suspension as the front will still wash out but it takes quite a bit more to get it to do so with the rs4 rsb.
