Is there an aftermarket front anti-sway bar for the 4th Gen Maxima?

Is there an aftermarket front anti-sway bar for the 4th Gen Maxima?

If so, who and where can I get one? I believe this would be a cheap way to cut down on the body roll.

Thanks

Don't believe so.

There are the Sub-Frame Connectors from WarpSpeed though.

Do a search for SFC.

I'd love to get subframe connectors but in the SCCA Solo II world that would bump me from STS to a Preparded class. That's not the best place to be.

While a stiffer front anti-roll bar would cut body roll, it would also increase understeer. This would not be a good trade off considering we have too much understeer to begin with.

I agree. What I would love to find are adjustable end links so that I could loosen the stock FSB.

How would adjustable links loosen the bar? Wouldnt they just move both ends up and down together?

I dont see how this would change the stiffness of the bar/system...

I have seen adjustable end links (for other applications) that have a spring in line with bushings. You can adjust the spring pre-load, which effects how soon the body sway is transferred to the sway bar.

An ES full set for the Maxima? I'll call right now. I'm sick of trying to piece it all together?
