Is there a beefed up anti-sway bar available for a 560SL?

I'm trying to improve the handling of my 560SL. Just ordered larger rims, changing the sub-frame bolts, and wondered if anyone had run across a better than OEM anti-sway bar? Would performance shocks help as well? Thank you.

Richard, I'm getting ready to change out all of the bushings on my 450 SL. I'm trying to see if there are any polyurethane bushings out there that may make these cars handle alittle better? Let me know if you come across anything!!

wow... sorry I let this one slip by me... I put billsteins on my 450 and it helped a lot. The ride is stiffer, but still confortable. Just ask eric

4Delit, can you tell me where you purchased your Hellas and which model Hella you bought? Thanks.

[4NDELIT]

no prob... I bought the hellas at my local euro auto parts store. they ran me 40 bucks each (90 for the pair + tax). On the box it is called "Hella European Technology High Performance Headlamp" and it's part no. 71456. they are 5 3/4" round H4's (high beam/low beam), and they fit right in and plug right in; no modifying needed. hope this helps... you can still find pics at http://www.thedotcommune.com/tim/E-Codes/

Thanks 4Delit...I found a kit from **************.com that includes both the H-4 and H-1's for $200 (incl. shipping).

I was thinking about doing the H-1's, but I figured it was not worth it, considering H-4's have high beams too. Tell me how they look though, I might end up changing my mind.

Just ordered it...I'll let you know how it turns out....honestly, my stock headlights aren't that bad but this is a cheap upgrade.
