Upgraded sway bars front and rear, wheel spacers, off-set wheels... All these pros also have significant cons...

define "stability"
are you worried about tipping? wanting more stability in the front-end at speed?

Drive slower. Then you wont need stability on the street.

sultan go into marysville or bothel and go to napa all you need is upgraded sway bar bushings and napa carries them, also don't get wheel spacers those are dangerous cause they cause more stress on the wheel studs so just go get some new wheels with 4.75 back spacing and get some 10.5 wide tires and you will be set, oh also you can get new coils up front since yours is stock i bet they are wore out.

I have never had a problem with mine and the stability. Just don't drive it like a race car and maybe replace all the bushings in the suspension.

Hey thanks for the input. My B2 is very stable yet better sway bars would be better! I have new front coils, Bilstein and wider wheels.

I live a few miles outside of town. There are three B2's out here. One that is like mine, a brown Eddie Bauer. Yet mine is much better shape. The third one is a non stock green. Heading west as you get into Sultan just past the gas station on the right there are 2 B2s. They are blue and red.

Thanks again!

yeah explorer springs, front and rear... make sure all your sway bar bushings are good... drive smarter, I've never felt unstable in my B2, even with stock suspension, body lift, and 30's...

Until I switched to EB front coils, I NEVER kept my front sway bars connected... I didn't need it. even right now (for over a year) I don't have a rear sway bar on my truck but I have an add a leaf and it's stiff...
