r8rs4lf Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Any updates??? Late- Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r8rs4lf Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 I talked to Tom today because I had a few questions concerning a few things. He told me the schedule date of Aug 15 is still a go unless any unforseen problems occur. He also told me testing is done and they're into the production phase. Just in case anyone wanted to know.

SSmokybear Posted August 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hey Guys!!! Just got back from Pocono and racing the Impala. Good news is the crew from GM High-tech Mag shot the car for 3 hours but doesn't promise anything. Sure let us just waste 500 pictures on a shoot that we will not use. Bad news is the Duramax dropped a tranny and we blew up the Impala a week after the event while cruising the lake in Rochester at 25 mph. go figure. Anyway, update on the bars and more info for you all. Final fit was done and everything that needed correcting was corrected. Wes has his set on the way as a third party input on the performance and installation. More from him this week after he get his installed. Info: I have spoken to a lot of you in regards to the installation of the rear bar and your concerns over whether the fuel tank needed to be moved or loosen to get the rear bar installed. The answer is a definite NO! Here are more R&D photos of the rear bar installed. If anyone has any more questions or wants to place their order is welcome to contact me anytime at 858-883-2655 Tom Frederico [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haynss Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 i wonder if this would work with the turbo under there. Looks like it comes close to the stock muffler and pipes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deezel Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 i wonder if this would work with the turbo under there. Looks like it comes close to the stock muffler and pipes. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> should work. the sway is all behind the axle, and the turbo is in front of the axle. at worst you might have to reposition the tailpipe a little.

SSmokybear Posted August 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 We still need a few more in on the GP to complete it. ;) Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSmokybear Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 383SS: I make a sway bar kit very simular for the 05 Mustang as well. 3 way adjustable. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josebrwn Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 During R&D some cat back systems (dual's with exits on each side.) needed to be modified to avoid interference with rear endlink. (mainly driver's side exit) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> how do you suppose it'd work with the Magnaflow cat-back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEEZARR1&SS Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 Well everybody I just got the sway bars from Tom all installed and a little bit of test driving with them in. The install went rather smothly concidering mine were the test set and all. The front is a LOT heavyer then the stock one, and the fact of having a rear makes a lot of diff in the hole body roll. I had a R/T that I had put a set of other sway bars on, and these Sway bars from Tom went on a lot easyer and made a lot more diff in the driving and handeling. I also have a set of air ride air bags installed on the SS, the sway bars cleared them with no problem. Plenty of room with the stock tail pipe. I am not sure about the set up of a dual's with exits on each side, should fit. The spare tire is still able to be kept with plenty of room. Over all a big to Tom for the great poduct. I have a lot of pics if some one would like to see some, or to host them to post them on hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r8rs4lf Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 That's good news for sure! I'll be installing my McGaughy's rear air bag kit soon enough. I'm interested in seeing those pics. Email them to me @ [email protected] Thanks Late- Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSmokybear Posted August 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Here are just 8 of the 70+ pictures Wes sent me from his installation of the new sway bars. A couple of answers to some of your questions about the installation have been answered. No modifications to the fuel tank nor do you have to do anything to the fuel system to get these bars installed. There is no interference by the air bag system that Wes has installed in his SS. We need at least 10 more people to complete the GP. The bars are ready to ship as of tomorrow but can not ship until the GP is completed. If you have any questions about the bars or are now ready to place your order please call me at 858-883-2655. Tom Frederico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEEZARR1&SS Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Yup that is what it looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r8rs4lf Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 OK, wait a minute, are you saying all the people who paid up already like me aren't getting their orders until you get 10 more? How long are you going to wait for the other 10 orders? I've been paid up and waiting since 7-13-05. Late- Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
