Does anyone know if the front sway bar is sold anywhere separately? Or if it has its own part number?

I just installed my rear sway. Cost me $65 (price of a torque wrech from sears). Place wanted $145 to put it in and it took me 45 minutes.

I can tell a difference immediately going around corners. I did think I heard a weird humming noise around 55 but I may just be paranoid.

Oops I had put my AFS sensor back wrong. Fixed! Now my sway is installed. Lol.

I had to remove the bracket because I have gigantor hands and forgot which way it went. Luckily I found a whole thread about it!

I'd like to ask a question: For the people who had the rear sway bar first, then installed the front sway... was there a noticeable difference?
-Thanks

Having read the several threads from folks who have done this, yes, all of them said there was a noticeable difference... but that it wasn't as large a one as going from totally stock to the F-sport rear.

I agree with what most people have said. After installing the rear f-sport bar the front feels a little loose now. I'll definitely be installing the front bar as well.
