Re: Has anyone improved ride/handling in Jimmy/Blazer?

Today I stumbled across Dorman #927-214: http://www.dormanproducts.com/itemde...SEName=927-214
Rear sway bar kit for leaf spring suspension, 7/8" diameter. Price is about $105-130, seems like a good deal.
Has anyone used this kit? Any drawbacks?

Ordered the Dorman rear sway bar in March of 2016 and they charged my CC. Turns out the sway bar was on back order. It finally shipped December 2016, Called and complained and they gave me a 10% discount.

Had to have 2 custom U-bolts and mounting plate fabricated, now ready to bolt up. Next step is remove rear tires, weave sway bar through exhaust pipes and drive shaft, drill mounting holes for center brackets and install.

Kind of a PIA, but next on my list.
