Got the bar installed today. Less than an hour install with the car backed onto my ramps.

Stock vs. RB bar

Installed

This makes a good bit of difference in body roll, and makes the car turn in much better.

I thought you said you got the Progress bar (in this post http://www.fordfusionclub.com/index.php?topic=53069.0)?

That is huge! How is the ride with that on there?

RPM was waiting on a shipment of the Progress bars, so rather than waiting a month for the Progress bar, I upgraded to the Racing Beat bar. It was $30 cheaper too.

The ride isn't much different. You really only notice it when hitting a bump with only one side of the car. If your roads have lots of potholes, it might get annoying.

Yea, I live in the pothole state (PA)! Guess the bar is out for me.

Looks good and it sure is meaty.

I just went to Racing Beat here in Anaheim, CA and bought the 27mm bar.

It intalled without any problems and I am trying to get progress to take the old one back.

Anyone gonna take the plunge and get the front bar installed?

I was looking at it while it was up on the lift today and it looks like a bitch to get out...


When I was at Racing Beat today, I asked the guys there if they planned on making Fusion parts and they looked at me like I was talking a different language. I then explained that the Fusion was built on the 6 chassis (just stretched) and they acted shocked.

I told them I was putting it on my Fusion and they looked at me like I was crazy.

I told them it could be a whole new market for them if they did.
