Worth installing OEM rear sway bar on my SR+?

[tlr1000]

That's nonsense! You will need the sway bar (with bushing and brackets), end links, and 4 bolts to attach the brackets to the subframe. There are already threaded holes because Tesla would never make an SR+ specific subframe, we all know that!

Thanks for confirming. I thought is was super odd. Maybe the SC parts guy was smoking something funny at the time.

I installed an OEM rear sway bar from a performance model 3 on my SR+. I do recommend.

Is that something you can just order from SC and have them install it?

what was the cost of everything?

Yes.

You should be able to order the parts from a service center. I bought mine on eBay and installed it myself. I spent around $200.

the bar itself isn't expensive, brand new from Tesla around $200, the endlinks are $100 (All the prices in Hong Kong are jacked up, it could be cheaper in the US), then few bucks for the bolts.

i know this is an old thread, but wanted to ask @MountainPass, do you think it worth getting rear sway bar for daily driver? all my ICE FWD cars had rear sway bars upgraded and cars felt so much better, precise. Not sure what to do with RWD Model 3. Do you recommend only front or rear or both? or don't to it at all since you say car becomes loose on turns?

buy a oem rear sway, or simply go for fr/rr aftermarket set

If you have an SR without a rear bar, the OEM LR RWD rear bar would be a nice and inexpensive upgrade! Whether it is better or not is a matter of opinion. I personally run no rear sway bar on my SR+ after testing back-to-back and coming to the conclusion that it feels better and is easier to drive at the limit like that.
