Construction & Design:
The Cusco Front Sway Bar is crafted from high-strength solid steel with a 20mm diameter, providing a substantial increase in stiffness compared to the factory sway bar. This robust construction ensures long-lasting performance and resistance to flexing under load. Cusco’s engineering focuses on maintaining a balance between improved handling and ride comfort, using carefully selected bushings and mounting hardware to minimize unwanted noise and vibration.
The sway bar’s powder-coated finish not only enhances durability but also protects against rust and environmental damage, ensuring it maintains its performance and appearance over time.

Drivers will notice a more planted feel through turns, allowing for higher cornering speeds and increased confidence behind the wheel. The upgraded sway bar also sharpens steering feedback, making the vehicle’s handling more precise and predictable.
While the sway bar itself does not produce sound, the improved chassis control contributes to a more engaging and connected driving experience.
