YOu think that does a lot? wait till you install the beefier rear sway bar along with the rear strut bar/brace combo.... makes the front bar seem like nothing by itself. Glad to see you around kev!

If you can tell me where to get it.. since KFX doesn't have it for the optima.. then I'll look into it.
