Overview:
The Progress Technology Rear Sway Bar for the 2008–2015 Scion xB2 is a precision-engineered suspension upgrade designed to enhance vehicle handling and stability. Unlike the OEM setup, which lacks a rear sway bar, this unique kit adds a 22mm anti-roll bar mounted directly to the rear axle beam. This addition significantly reduces body roll during cornering, improving tire contact with the road and delivering sharper, more confident handling characteristics.
Ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved cornering performance and better overall vehicle control, this rear sway bar transforms the Scion xB’s chassis dynamics without compromising ride quality. It is a perfect upgrade for street drivers and weekend track users alike who want to maximize their Scion’s handling potential.
Key Features:
This rear sway bar kit offers a comprehensive solution to enhance rear suspension performance with the following key features:
- 22mm diameter alloy steel bar providing increased roll stiffness over OEM setup
- Unique design mounts directly to the rear axle beam, adding a sway bar where none existed
- Polyurethane bushings for improved durability and crisp, responsive handling
- Includes custom brackets and end-link assemblies tailored specifically for the Scion xB2
- Powdercoated metallic gray finish for corrosion resistance and long-lasting appearance
- Reduces body roll to keep tires flatter on the pavement, enhancing grip and cornering speed

Construction & Design:
The Progress rear sway bar is cold-formed in-house using advanced precision bending equipment to ensure consistent quality and fitment. The alloy steel bar is engineered for optimal stiffness and durability, replacing the nonexistent OEM rear anti-roll component. Laser-cut and CNC-machined ends are MIG welded with exacting tolerances to maintain structural integrity and precise geometry.
Polyurethane bushings replace the softer rubber found in OEM suspension components, providing a firmer, more responsive connection that resists wear and deformation over time. The entire assembly is finished with a durable powdercoat to protect against corrosion and environmental damage, ensuring long-term reliability.

Designed specifically for the 2008–2015 Scion xB2, this rear sway bar kit installs directly onto the rear axle beam with no major modifications required. The kit includes all necessary custom brackets, polyurethane bushings, and end-link assemblies to facilitate a straightforward installation process. Enthusiasts with basic mechanical skills can complete the upgrade with common hand tools, though professional installation is recommended for optimal results.
