These bars were fitted to the car when I bought it. A brief road test revealed a degree of slop and play in the suspension. A professional steering/suspension inspection identifies the following issues;
Tie Rod End Inner Left - Fail
Tie Rod End Inner Right - Fail
Tie Rod End Outer Left - Fail
Tie Rod End Outer Right - Fail
Radius rod bushes - L&R - Fail
Front Struts L&R - Fail, completely worthless
Lower ball joints - L&R - Fail
Idler arm - Fail, bushes worn, bearings shot, replacement reqd.
Pitman arm - Fail, bushes worn, bearings shott, replacement reqd.
Front Coil Springs L&R - Pass
Rear upper trailing arms L&R - Fail, bushes *unbonded*
Rear lower trailing arms L&R - Fail, bushes *unbonded*
Sector Shaft / Steering Box - Fail, excessive play
Rear dampers L&R - Fail, completely shot
Rear Coil Springs L&R - Pass
Panhard Rod to Diff bush - Fail
Panhard Rod to Chassis bush - Fail
Fortunately there's no damage, just wear; as such, she's recoverable, and when I'm done rekitting every perishable component under the car she'll literally be better than new.
The point is I presume the swaybars, as aftermarket items, will make a significant improvement. I don't have the ability to make an objective analysis, though, because the condition of the car's underpinnings hasn't established a very good benchmark/basis for comparison.
