    Mk7 GTI front swaybar

    Has anyone on here fitted their own front swaybar in a mk7 gti?
    I assume the front subframe needs to be dropped, what's was involved and can it be done on the ground with Jack stands and a trolley jack?

    Why do you want to fit a front sway bar? Usually a thicker rear bar is the go in a FWD car. Last one I did was on a Mitsubishi Magna. Single best suspension mod I did. Dialled out lots of understeer. A thicker front bar will cause more understeer. Generally.
    Looking for:- RS4 B7 Avant.
    Current:- Amarok V6 Sportline; Mazda CX-9 Azami AWD
    Previous - Mk 6 R manual; Mk 7 R manual; Passat 130 TDi Wagon. Mk 7.5 Wolfsburg Wagon.

    Already have the rear done and it's great, but want more, few of the lads have done both with very good results
    car is getting tracked a bit, just got semi slicks and want a bit more turn in and traction through corners
