$156 shipped.....Installed this morning.

6 easy bolts, great project to have my 6 year old help with and one of the best bang for the buck mods out there for those of us with the 4x4 / bigger tires ride.

I drive a Corvette or G8 GT daily, so I tend to expect vehicles to handle decently. After I installed this on my wife's Tahoe, I didn't feel that little cringe and hesitation I normally get each time I corner in that beast.

I drove it for about 100 miles after installation today.....it seems "just right" and I'd label this as a WIN.

I also installed one this week- and agree completely- best bang for the buck- every Tahoe/Yukon should have one! I got mine from Summit racing $165 shipped.

Yeah, mine must have been $165 also.....I got it from Summit. Must have remembered the numbers reversed.

I got mine from Discount Tire's Ebay store - same price: $165 shipped (drop-shipped from Corona CA, pretty close to home). As reported, installation couldn't be easier; you don't even have to jack the vehicle up if you don't mind lying on the ground. If the ground slopes or there is any type of cross-loading, life will be easier if you undo the end links last and connect them first.
As for the results, I think it is a worthwhile improvement. There is still understeer, but it's not as extreme as stock and loosening up the rear end makes the vehicle feels a lot lighter (more balanced actually) and nimbler. It's probably not ideal if you tow since it will reduce the stability of the rig, alhtough I can't think the effect would be too severe.

does anyone know if this would fit on my cranked front end and 2" spacers in the back...is it the front or the rear that I need to install because I hate the body sway on my truck

it should work on your tahoe...call/email eibach, i don't see why it wouldnt work they just replace the old ones..metalhead i ll post when i get it on...i heard the same thing i was going to just upgrade the bushings but if i have to pull the thing off might as well mach em up..the people who did both seem to like it...the front of my truck seems a lil mushy compared to the back so......

so the front sway bar was on back order for 3-6 weeks so i just ordered the hotchkis sways. i would say that having the complete set is worth it. my truck handles a lot better. plus my front bushings were cracked and mushed. overall i would say those who just have the rear consider the front. at least do the endlink and d bushings. i am very pleased with the sways good rec. guys.
