Progress rear sway bar kits back in stock

Just received another shipment of Progress 22mm rear sway bar kits for the Focus. Also received some Focus springs as well.

Yes, it will fit the SVT.

Really helps the car to "rotate" in a corner. Autocrossers love them!!!

Does Progress have 24mm rear sway bars? I don't see a point in going from 21mm to 22mm on a SVTF. 24mm is something I would consider.

1mm DOES make a huge difference, 24mm will be the bar made by HR though.

unfortunately the post that had the explanation of it is REALLY old and i am WAY too lazy to search for it, basically 1mm in the sway bars can make or break the handling characteristics. i can't get too techical because i just dont know how to explain it sorry :(

yup, it'll improve the handling characteristics (1mm in rear that is)

so a 21mm in front and a 22mm in rear is a popular setup
