Hi guys,

Does anyone know the factory swaybar sizes for the bh5 wagon?

I'm looking at the whiteline ones and they are
22mm front
20mm rear

Has anyone done this? Is it worthwhile?

I would have thought a bigger one on the back would be better?

Cheers

Depends on the model, I think the b4 bars are 20mm front and 17mm rear, wagon turbo may be a bit smaller. The non-turbo are 21mm front and anywhere from 13-15mm rear?

 

I'm running the b4 front and whiteline adjustable (set to 22mm) rear. Seems to be a little more tail happy but overall definitely worthwhile.

my 96 ob is stock 20mm and 17 rear 

 

upgrading to 22mm whiteline rear and keeping the front 20 if that helps mate
