Detailed Description
Improve the handling of your Cobalt with this Progress 22mm rear sway bar kit. This same kit also fits the Chevrolet HHR, Saturn Ion (05-07) and Saturn Ion Redline (04-07.)
A larger rear sway bar on a front wheel drive car helps the car to rotate faster in a corner...making it handle better. Front wheel drive cars have lots of understeer, this rear sway bar helps to balance the handling so it is more neutral in the corners. If you want to go faster in the turns, this will help! A great addition to lowering springs!

It is REALLY easy to install. Just get the rearend in the air enough to (safely) get underneath. There is a great how to here somewhere. It is only 4 bolts and nuts in pre-existing holes (so no drilling). Torque to the right tightness and your done. Not everyone may have a torque wrench. I know I did not but I picked up a "middle of the road one" (not the really cheap ones but not a really expensive one either) as I figured it would be handy to have anyway.

I agree about how easy it is to install.
We did one as a door prize last year at the
2006 Biltmore Bash, and even installed it in the
Biltmore Winery's parking lot.
Here some pics of the install:

You really should use some ramps if possible or at
least have a couple of real skinny friends to go
under there!!! HAHA!!!!
And Sandy and I put one on her HHR before the Bash. It makes a
very noticable and stableized ride.
A definite must add-on, IMO!!!

Not much room to get under there.
