700 sway bars .....IPD! 700 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be Frank on  Wed May 7 00:59 CST 2003 [RELATED]

There are different sized OEM sway bars but I believe that turbo cars (or maybe just 745Ts) should have the larger ones. Don't waste your time with stock sway bars, get a pair (front and rear) of used IPD sway bars if possible. They're pricey new IMO. For even more stabilty, you can add Cherry strut supports (upper and lower) now also sold at IPD and through MVP (http://www.mvpvolvo.com) you can get Nick Choy improved sway bar links too (or at least they DID sell them a couple years ago).
My 745T has all those suspension mods and I think it handles well. One could even go farther like replace the struts with Bilstiens and some good, stiff lowering springs BUT I think that'd make one feel every bump in the road and sacrifice the smooth ride that I like.
