Just wondering. Are sway bars heat treated in any way as to influance there performance? Or is there spring/torque just the result of the material itself.
I see a lot of the names here of people who have helped me out over the past year or so. I'm glad I was able to follow the vaccum (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Steve a.k.a. Redbird1 |

The straight bars are (as far as I know) splined and then tempered (unless they are tempered and the splines are "rolled" like ARP fastners are). But either way, they are usually not "roll cage tubing" if that was the answer you were looking for.
