questions:
what is the difference between fsb and fstb, and rsb and rstb, i'm guessing that its Front sway bar, and front strut tower bar, and rear sway bar and rear strut tower bar, am i right?

also in the for sale section, what exactly does WTB stand for? something about wanted?

Appreciate a more experienced member helping get me up to speed, also please check back i will post more questions here as i think of them, thanks.

recently purchased 95 SE after borrowing my little bros 91 SE.

 

You are 100% right on the bars. WTB means "Wanted To Buy" and FS means "For Sale".

Also, what is a good price to pay for FTSB and RSTB for 95 SE? DO i need to do both of these and then also get FSB and RSB? What is the best combo? And please list some average prices, your expertise can save me from being taken to the cleaners, and you will get a friend out of it.

 

You cannot buy a new FSB so forget that. FSTB should be about $50 shipped and RSB should be about $120 shipped. The RSTB should be about $90 shipped (the only place you can get it is www.courtesyparts.com), but many people say it is a waste of money and does really help the suspension. Others say it is a good investment. . Anyways if you buy a FSTB and RSB for about $170 shipped you will have a much improved suspension.

I believe the "standard order" that people get these particular suspension upgrades in is fstb, rsb, then the others if necessary. The RSTB is a little odd as far as mounting goes from what I've seen, and the front sway bar would just be a thicker upgrade to what's already on there factory. I dunno about prices, but I suggest searching with terms like "sway bar" or "tower brace" or "tower bar" to learn more about the items.

 

Find the cheapest one, product + shipping, on ebay. I think other than bars made by companies like JIC Magic, all bars are the same. The stillen one looks cool but you can decide wheter its cool enough to be worth $150+. I saw one on ebay that looked like the stillen one except it didn't say stillen on it. Be careful on ebay, never buy the "MODS" that claim it will give you 15 extra hp for a timing advance kit or tornado blower.

 

I got a RSB as my first (oppps, I mean only) suspension mod and I love it. For the price it was well worth it keeping my a$$ in the corners on a 'spirited' drive. I don't have the FSTB yet but I may get one eventually.

 

If you're quick you can get an ADDCO RSB from Cattman for $115 shipped. There was a GD (group deal ) that ended a bit ago but I was able to place an order for one yesterday at that price.

 

Thanks for your help guys, I already purchased a fstb (today), and will soon purchase a rsb. I appreciate all the help!
