The factory TC bar plus the Powell hardcore bar is a good combo. It is by no means overstate prone.

Moog, like factory GM, has 2 different lengths for their endlinks. If you're on stock springs for a 2.4, you would want the longer ones. If you're on aftermarket springs, you should have the shorter Moog endlinks.

Thats interesting, i'm on pedders so about 1.5 inches up front. I have the moog cobalt 'sport' model end links, guess I'm going to have to find out what that means. My guess is they are the shorter of the two but don't want to make assumptions.

TC bar lists as 23mm and $85.23 on CED, actually 1mm less in diameter than the SC sway bar, according to halfcents suspension and brake facts sticky it is 24mm for 2008+ so someone has a typo?

I didn't mean removing the stock front, I meant replacing it with something aftermarket.
