Progress Tech Auto Sway Bars for Better Handling and Control
.jpg)
Less roll. More control. Progress Tech sway bars dramatically improve vehicle handling by minimizing body roll and keeping tires flatter and better connected to the pavement. Improved tire contact delivers sharper cornering, increased stability, and greater driver confidence.
Chassis tuning with larger or adjustable auto sway bars is one of the most effective ways to improve balance and reduce the understeer common in many late-model vehicles. Progress Tech sway bars are engineered to enhance control without compromising ride quality, making them ideal for daily driving and performance use.
Designed, engineered, and manufactured in-house, Progress Tech sway bars replace smaller factory components with larger-diameter alloy steel bars and durable polyurethane bushings. Precision CNC bending, laser-cut or machined ends, and fixture-controlled MIG welding ensure exact fitment and long-term performance. Every Progress Tech sway bar is proudly made in the USA and backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Why Modern Sway Bar Design Matters
Factory sway bars are often designed with ride comfort as the top priority. This can result in noticeable body roll and reduced cornering confidence. Modern sway bar design focuses on balancing comfort with control.
Larger diameter bars and improved materials allow for better load distribution during turns. This helps keep the chassis flatter and tires planted. The result is more predictable handling in real-world driving.
Precision-engineered sway bars also improve consistency. Drivers experience better feedback and stability across varying road conditions. Our modern designs integrate with factory suspension systems.
Materials and Manufacturing Technology
Progress Tech sway bars are manufactured from high-strength alloy steel for performance and durability. Cold-forming techniques preserve material integrity during shaping. This ensures predictable rate characteristics under load.
Precision CNC bending creates accurate geometry for proper suspension alignment. Ends are laser-cut or machined, then MIG-welded using controlled fixtures. This process guarantees strength, consistency, and exact fitment. Our durable powder coat finish resists corrosion in demanding environments.
Durable polyurethane bushings replace softer factory rubber components. They resist compression and wear over time.
The Progress Tech Difference
Progress Tech designs and manufactures sway bars entirely in-house. This allows for complete control over materials, engineering, and quality standards. Every component is tested to meet strict performance requirements.
Progress Tech sway bars are vehicle-specific. They are engineered to work with factory mounting points and suspension geometry. This ensures proper fit and balanced handling.
All Progress Tech sway bars are proudly made in the USA. Each product is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. This reflects a commitment to long-term performance and customer confidence.
Fitment, Standards, and Vehicle Compatibility
Proper fitment is critical for sway bar performance. Each Progress Tech sway bar is engineered for specific vehicle platforms and suspension layouts. Always confirm year, make, and model compatibility.
Progress Tech sway bars replace smaller factory bars while retaining OEM mounting points. No permanent modifications are typically required. Correct installation ensures balanced handling and reliability.
Maintenance and Best Practices
- Inspect bushings regularly for wear
- Lubricate polyurethane bushings as recommended
- Check mounting hardware for proper torque
- Clean components to reduce corrosion buildup
