I bought this setup for my custom 2wd racer, based on the Slash platform. I took the finished car out for the first time today, and despite the still necessary dialing in to complete, the car handled like no Slash I have ever driven. I could not roll it in the turns. I was using the heaviest bar set very tight, and I was able to sling the car into the turns, both close to the corners in the tight sections and (even more fun) taking sweeping arcs through the turns that empty into the straights--keeping the wheels on the ground and keeping acceleration through the arc of the turn. This part, in combination with an lcg chassis (I use the pro-line pro-2 aluminum), will absolutely transform the truck into a capable, sharper handling machine.

I installed these on my 2WD Slash and found the front to work perfect. However, the rear has some major design flaws. For one, they don't really rotate because of the bend at the bottom where it connects to the links. They act more as a second spring than an anti sway bar. Second, on full compression, it has a tendency to bind on one side. Also, the bar slides to the right when the left is compressed and it stays there - binding and not letting the left drop. I took the rear off and modified the mount. Instead of mounting on the shock tower, I drilled two holes at the back of the motor mount/gear box and screwed the anti sway bar mount to this. I used one of the front bars I wasn't using and installed it there. It now works very well, actual sway bar action and no binding. I am going to bend the rear bars into the shape of the front ones so I have a full set that works. I am actually surprised they weren't mounted in a similar location off of the rear bumper mount (wouldn't be hard to do). Additionally, no installation instructions are included and you need to search online for the diagram that should have been included. Read full review

I used this on a 2wd Traxxas slash with the LCG chassis. The front sway bar fit and operated perfect. I couldn’t figure out how the rear bar was mounted (no instructions) so I got some ideas off of YouTube. There are at least 3 ways to mount the rear bar. I chose to cut the rear bar to look exactly like the front Bar. I mounted it where I thought it works best and it came out perfect/operates perfect. I chose to mount the rear bar where the shock tower connects to the chassis. I did not use the rear bracket supplied in the kit, instead, i used the supplied countersunk washers. I spaced the washers up with a servo spacer I cut in half so that the bar would have freedom of movement. (see pics) All in all these work well with modification. I would recommend these if you’re looking for added stability in high traction environments. 4 stars from me because it wasn’t a bolt on without some mod. Still great though. Read full review

They don't say you need to use stock parts! They don't include instructions! Is it well made, absolutely... Seems good quality 👌 just wish I could actually use them

Front went on great. Haven’t figured how to mount rear yet because I am using proline wide suspension kit and there’s not really anywhere in the rear shock tower to mount bracket but I’ll figure it out!
