Default Those with cusco sways ...Do you use the stock mounts ???

I am probably going to pick up a set of cusco sways used: 22 mm front, and 22 mm, 3 way adj. rear... I was doing some researching and it appears as if the stock mounts are used (i.e.- there aren't different/cusco ones needed)... anyone confirm this ???

yep cusco bars use the stock mounts/brackets. a lot of bars re-use the stock mounts/brackets.

i had that setup on my car and liked it alot. i switched to the whiteline 29mm front bar since it was what all of the autox folks were using and it's been great. the cusco 22mm rear bar is still kicking butt tho.

yup you use stock mounts. don't forget to get sme silicon grease and grease the bushings before putting it in.
AND DON'T FORGET TO GET SOME AFTERMARKET ENDLINKS. AT LEAST FOR THE REAR. THIS IS A MUST WITH AFTERMARKET SWAY BARS ON SUBARUS.
stock endlinks tend to break or bend with aftermarket or even stock sway bars. fronts have good endlinks and rears don't
I know this from experience since i have cusco sways. and my stock endlinks bent in the rear and it was rubbing my lateral arm and made big o scratch
i really don't know why aftermarket companies offer endlinks with their sway bars, its just a common sense.
