[sc3pt3r6uy562]

does anyone knows if a 1999 solara trd sway bar will fit a gen 3

[95PimpingCamry]

yes it does.

[sc3pt3r6uy562]

thanks 95 pimping camry. have you tried it?

[eyeball96]

Yes I have them on both my coupes.....hey guy give this a try.
There's a search button at the top of the page...Try it, put in "TRD RSB"....ull find bunches of post on the subject! Its an eazy way of finding all kinds of answers to questions u have about the Gen 3 Camry.

Welcome to TN

Is there a beefier front sway bar for Gen3 camry's?

[eyeball96]

^^^Yes! I think whiteline has one..but u really don't need it, IMO..the OEM FSB is pretty beefy!

[bigbird]

its a thing of debate. while it does stiffen the ride in the front it also promotes more understeer and the limit is harder to predict. i think Addco makes the FSB.

[camry man68]

Addco makes a front and rear for the gen 4 and gen 3 I think.

Most of us here on TN view adding a stiffer FSB as counter intuitive, in the sense that the Gen3 already suffers from understeer, and to stiffen the FSB would theoretically increase understeer XD

I put a TRD Solara rear sway bar on my V6, 2000 4 door Camry. Was a tight fit at the outside ends where the sway bar bushing mount to the frame. Also had to bend the gas tank flange on one side to prevent interference. I'm running with the end links in the outermost holes. Works fine. Corners much flatter now with less under-steer. Even my little wife could tell the difference.

Addco sent me two different rear sway bars. Neither one would fit. They refunded my money and said keep the bad ones. There are apparently several different Camry chassis versions and the sway bars for them are not interchange able.

From previous experiences I have found that keeping the front end in the nicer part of the camber curve is much more important than trying to fight what is often driver induced understeer. Limiting front roll goes a lot towards eliminating dreadful positive camber up front, a byproduct of the macpherson strut design.

I did the front bar on my Legacy first and it was night and day how it handled. I should mention here that I also take my car to a road course (BeaveRun in PA). So I get to explore the limits of handling, and never once did I notice additional understeer. When I added the rear bar, the biggest difference was that it helped keep the front inside tire more planted in turns... instead of going up in smoke at 60-70 mph around turns 2-4!

I don't plan on tracking my '95 Camry. But I do realize the helpful (and fun!) benefits of having a nice big front sway bar on a daily driven car. I understand both cars are a little bit different - turbo awd, na fwd. So if someone with specific experience with having a front bar can shed more light, please do.

I will definitely check into Whiteline, I have quite a few bits of theirs on the Legacy. I like their stuff! And I'll check around on the Addco. Any favorite sites/vendors for this stuff on the TN?

Cheers.
