Quick FSTB question & also, has anyone tried the Cattman Ti-Bar FSTB...

Think I'm fixing to order a FSTB and RSB. Gathering from all the posts, it appears that many people are happier with the progress rear sway bar, and its also cheaper. So I'm going with it!

As for the FSTB, I've also gathered that many people didn't notice a whole hell of alot difference. I was thinking on the custommaxima one, but just stumbled across the cattman ti-bar, man does that thing look sweet! It wouldnt really be worth the extra $130 compared to the custommaxima one would it?

Thanks guys, suspension is almost complete

I want one just because I think they look great. It wont do anything more than an E-bay bar other than being very light.

I just got the custommaxima bar and i gotta tell ya, it looks awesome! I got the polished one - it looks like chrome. As for weight, it's reeeeeeally light. Shipping weight was 5lbs with the box. As for price: $60+shipping. Best looking bar for the price IMHO.

the custommaxima one seems to only weigh about 5lb while the procart one is 7lb. i guess spending the extra 10bucks for the being 2lb lighter is worth it.

Not worth dealing with the company IMHO.

Wasn't there some theories about how the Titanium bar would flex more than an aluminum one? Basically it would negate the effects of the FSTB, which is supposed to stiffen up the chassis...
