What do you mean the sway bar being the difference? They sway bar on the front end is at least 75% bigger. And it is installed. We lost 86lbs and have a bigger sway bar and the stock sub has a tiny sway bar and a manual steering box. I believe the weight savings is in the shear mass of the stock clip and mass of the stock control arms. Plus the fact we lost a steering box and linkage, plus it is tied into one unit with the rack and pinion.

For the Price of an after market clip now days, people used to buy the whole car. Kinda crazy how times ahave changed, but so has the quality of the products we are all replacing on our cars. I actually thought we might have lost a bit more weight then just 86, my guess was 100.

Here is pic with the sway bar installed.
