Hi.
I had discussed it previously (may be in this or other forums)..
After buying W163 ML320, i realized that was side to side rocking, even with new Bilstein shocks, over bumps and patholes. Guys other forums suggested deleting rear sway bar may be helpful. It may be paradox, that if sway bar intended to prevent sway, how it can cause sway ? But it was true.
I removed both for testing, The car is now unbelievable comfortable, and almost 0 rocking over deep holes and high bumps.
İt feels like as if car is going over the pillow. Of course at the corners it is extremely bad, so i will reinstall front bar. Please correct if i am wrong,
It is pretty obvious how sway bar prevents car from rolling over. it acts like a spring, and makes it difficult for wheels to articulate independently.
However stiffer springs does the same too.
So if i install stiffer springs (torsion bars) the car will be more stable at corners, just like with the sway bar.
So is there any advantage of sway bars over stiffer springs ?
i will post video of car going over same bumps, both before and after sway bar removal.
