Running my ERBE in the last few days, I noticed that it was easier to roll it over when making tight turns. I checked my sway bar set up and the front Tekno sway bar I run (Tekno front/Traxxas rear) has become so soft that it is now useless. Many don't beleive that the Tekno sway bars are prone to premature metal fatigue because they are too short and small. Here's a good proof. Longer and thicker sway bars don't have to bend as much and last longer. I replaced this Tekno sway bar with one I made. It is a bit thicker and taller so it will last longer. The same is installed on my nitro Revo and has been bash and race tested for over a year.
This is the Tekno sway bar I was using. The ends were bent upwards. Whether the ends are bent upwards or left stock, I experienced the same kind of premature metal fatigue.
This is the sway bar I made out of 2.3 mm piano wire. This same sway bar has been working awsome on my nitro Revo.
