I just got the neuspeed front and rear sway bar installed on Friday last week. But today I just checked the neuspeed website and to my astonishment the picture of the front sway bar that they had on their website is the bar that's on the rear of my car!!!! I immediately checked the picture of the rear sway bar on the neuspeed website and that bar is on the front of my car??!!! I ran to the car in the garage and quadruple checked and yes they are switched!!!!
Will someone here with the neuspeed sway bars please show me pics of their sway bar or clarify whether my shop screwed up or the neuspeed website screwed up.

I don't have a Neuspeed bar, but the front bar should be MUCH larger in diameter than the rear bar. If that's not the case, then yes, your bars are switched. However, I can't imagine how a rear bar would even fit in the front and vice versa.

What, specifically, makes you think that they are switched?

I'm also suprised that the bars fit in their current positions.................according to pictures on the neuspeed.com website my bars are switched..........

CoralDoc

O.K., but what, specifically, about the picture on the Neuspeed website makes you think they are switched? Please mention if the bar mounted in the front of your car is smaller in diameter than the one mounted in the rear.

If you won't provide details, we can't help you out.

I would suggest that the pictures on the Neuspeed website are most likely switched. The pictures are of the bars by themselves. If they showed them installed on the car, then you could easily determine if the pictures (or your bars) are in the wrong place. I bet the web page designer made a little mistake.

I'm with CoralDoc, I doubt the front would fit on the rear and vice versa.

The front and rear stabilizer bars are not interchangeable. Positive.

How does it ride?

I can't imagine what it would take to switch them. Don't worry dude, it's gotta be the pictures that are switched.

I'm gonna go with everyone else here and say that the bars could not be "switched". I installed my Cuscos and they were both shaped completely different. I don't see how they could've got them on if they were on the wrong side.

well the front and rear sway bar are differently shaped from each other.

According to the pictures from the neuspeed website the rear sway bar is totally straight in the middle where as the front sway bar has bends in the middle.

On my car the sway bar with the middle bends are in the rear and the sway bar with the straight middle is on the front!!!

I received a e-mail from neuspeed today and they assured me that their website pictures are correct and the sway bars can actually be installed even though they are switched.

I'm gonna approach the shop that did the installation tomorrow and get them to do a reinstallation.
