I have a 2004 Monte SS.  I am wondering if the front and rear STBs sold by 3800performance.com are worth it or not.  I am looking to get rid of some of the bodyroll.

Are you reffering to the SLP sway bars?? Is the rest of your suspension stock?

the rear probly wouldnt be a bad idea depending on how much ya beat on your car, i've had to grind the rear knuckles on about 5 local police impalas (with 50-90k mi)to adjust camber that was bad enough to wear the inner edges off both tires.  i dont know if its because thier loaded down, or they do alot of high speed corning, or just a combination of everything they do. but theres nothing there to adjust w/o grinding and nothing in the suspension ever bent, so basicly theyre bending thier rear strut towers.   however, i've got about 125k on my monte and rear tire wear is still even, although i havent had it on an alignment rack to see if its off slightly.
