Default 1999 Deville Sway Bars-Poly Bushings with Zerts-Wheel spacers (hubcentric)

99 Deville 70,000 miles. New factory replacement struts and self leveling rear end.

Looking for better sway bars (F/R) to enhance flatter cornering of vehicle,improve turn in response, and stability at high speed (Caddy Limo bars ?).

The whole world is not an interstate highway. Not trying to put together a canyon carver just an improved touring car. If you go with shorter springs ,stiffer struts and springs you might get around a corner better but in general you trash the ride.

I prefer to preserve the ride with standard suspension but make the handling more solid by 1. getting superior sway bars. 2. Improved bushings (poly,poly graphite, or others that do not squeak and have zerts for lubricating all bushings etc... even if the manufacturer claims their product will never squeak.

In addition hubcentric wheel spacers to widen the track of the vehicle (there by putting more of the weight between the wheels ) accomplishes many of the improvements that shorter stiffer springs/struts bring but again without a loss in ride quality.

I welcome any and all comments. In addition referrals to various manufacturers that might provide Caddy friendly products is appreciated.

Building a better touring car not a bottom scrapper.

Thanks !

Try 93-97 STS stabilizer bar 98 STS was a redesign which may not work. The 93-95 STS were somewhat known for rough ride the stiffer front springs would help with handling as far as looking for low buck used parts.
