DSE Front Sway Bar Kit - 1-3/8in Diameter (031413DS) - 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird
Give your third-generation F-Body the front-end roll control it needs with the Detroit Speed Front Sway Bar Kit, part number 031413DS. Engineered for 1982-1992 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird models, this larger-than-stock 1-3/8-inch tubular front sway bar helps reduce body roll, sharpen cornering response, and give the chassis a more planted feel when the road gets twisty. With an anti-roll bar rate of 944 pounds per inch, this kit is a serious handling upgrade for street, restomod, Pro Touring, autocross, and other performance-oriented third-gen builds.
Detroit Speed takes the 031413DS beyond a simple replacement sway bar by incorporating a direct bolt-in front frame bracket that relocates the bar for improved fitment while also increasing front frame stiffness. The hollow tubular bar is powder coated black and supplied with greaseable polyurethane bushings, mounting brackets, and end links designed to work with stock lower control arms. Detroit Speed bends its sway bars in-house for greater control over manufacturing quality, and the kit includes the required mounting hardware and grease for installation.
