2 New Mods: Broadway Mirror and ES Front Sway Bar Bushings

I got my Energy Suspension front sway bar bushings put on last night. These things are an excellent buy for only $14. They reduce body roll up front and provide a much more stable turn-in. This mod improved my handling a lot more than the FSTB did. Only thing is now there is a touch more understeer--hardly noticeable though.

2nd thing--I got my Broadway 270mm (flat version) mirror on. I only got the 270mm flat because I didn't want to deal with the "objects are closer than they appear" or it getting in the way of the visors. Anyway the mirror clips on the stock mirror very cleanly. It doesn't look ghetto or anything and I can still fold both visors down all the way.

Is there any wheel vibration while driving down the highway?

Did you do the end link brushings also? And do the brushings squeek or make any noise at all?

Thanks.

Nope...the wheels stays still on the highway.

Yeah...I already had the ES end links. And no, they don't make any noises. The bushings came with a special lube to keep them quiet.
