Unhappy Belltech front sway bar replacement

My whole suspension is a Belltech set up, 3/4 drop, rear sway ber, and shocks. I didnt order the front sway bar replacement at the time cause Summit was out of stock when I ordered. I finally called summit last friday asking when it was going to be in stock, they told me that they have had no requests for a belltech front sway bar replacement so they have not restocked them. I decided to check out some local performance shops and suspension shops. Everywhere I went had basicaly the same answer that they could not get the bar! What is up with that? I have not called Belltech about it yet but I plan to monday.

Does anyone know if it has been discontinued? I want my entire suspension to be Belltech but it is starting to look like I might haft to use a Hellwig.

Thumbs up

Hotchkis(sp) also makes front and rear bars.

I've seen them and I think they're on sale at www.truckperformance.com

Question

Hey f150freak you say you want the full Belltech suspension, I'm assuming that means you have their shocks too, correct? If so do you have the Nitro's or the Nitro-Active shocks? I'm gonna order their 3/4 but don't know which shocks to get. I'm leaning towards the Nitro-Actives, but I'd like to hear your opinion. Thanks.

99flareside, I have the Nitro drop shocks. From what I have herd the Nitro-Active shocks are a much firmer shock than the Nitros. The Nitros themselves give a very good ride. At first though they were a little rough on the ride, but after a week it smoothed out(I guess they needed a breakin peroid).
