Do cusco or whiteline sway bars or lower arm bushes that Phat provides drop the ride quality? You mentioned the Perrin ones do, Or is that just the anti-lift part?

Some comments on the thread say that the Urethane bushes do but not to much on the ones phats selling...

The Phat ones are a silicon filled Rubber I believe, so it is firmer than stock but more compliant than Perrin, Whiteline, all the other LCA bushes. NVH Levels for Phat's would be around halfway between stock and urethane.

Bigger swaybars will drop ride quality on bumpy roads since LHS and RHS wheel(s) will become less independent.
