Default rear sway bar options

Looking to add the Synergy upper shock mounts in the rear and they put the shock right where the factory sway bar is. I'm also looking for a stiffer option but one that will flex well off road. It looks like Currie makes an anti-rock that is stiffer but its got the aluminum arms and is pricey. are there other options for just a factory replacement that is stiffer?

Full Traction makes a sweet HD rear sway bar. $190, 3 settings for stiffness. I run the middle setting full time. Reduced body roll, and completely killed my understeer

You can buy individual pars at summit racing and build your own.

is anyone running the synergy upper shock mounts that relocate the shocks up 2" and what sway bar did you use in conjunction with it to clear the mounts?

Call Synergy. They likely know about the many ways customers have made it work. They're good people there and will be helpful.

yep

running the lower mounts and the uppers.

I use the stock sway bar. All you have to do is move your sway bar mounts on the frame back about 2 inches.

I ended up going with the currie anti rock with aluminum arms and they upgraded me to a 1" torsion bar to stiffen it up a bit. thanks all.
