Upgraded Aftermarket Sway Bars
Hey guys,
Over the past 2 years I've been reaching out to as many sway bar manufactures possible. All for the most part have ignored me. Well today one replied and said they would be able to produce custom sway bars for us. My question is...are all W211 sway bars cross compatible? If so, providing E63 sway bars as an example would be appropriate for fitment as the E63 has the largest diameter? In addition I've created a poll to see who would be interested in purchasing a pair of upgraded sway bars. Please let me know your thoughts. The more orders the better pricing will be. I'm picking up a set myself regardless. Thanks!
Applications (assuming fitment is the same across entire chassis):
W219
W211

sorry guys...the place i was planning to have them made quoted me something like 1000-1200 for front and rear sets. its rather difficult to front all the money so i let the ball drop on these. I did ship them a set of OEM E63 bars to base them off of.

The issue is that the front bar is massive. Just huge. The rear bar is quite small. That equals a specific kind of handling. How much bigger could tye front bar even be?
In some cars they just modify the leverage point which also works.

Were they going to be made of titanium or something?

when you make a short run of 5 front and 5 rear prices are higher. when you order larger quantities of course price will drop, but we only had 5 people who were interested. if you want to front the capital to purchase more than 5 sets do it and i'll buy a set.
he did also mention new endlinks and swaybar brackets and bushings would need to be made and that was not initially included with the estimate. no idea how much that would cost or if that could be worked into the original estimate. i'm sure it could be.
the E63 sways i sent to him were 380 shipped so i'm already out that amount.

i guarantee you that you will not be able to sell 10 SETS easily. you'll find 5 upfront buyers which i would be included, then sit on 5 sets for however long that takes. i personally would like an uprated front and rear bar.

Does anyone know if the CLS sway bars are larger? They seem to have the same replacement part numbers
