Should I replace it with a stock SE bar, or upgrade to something stiffer? I have bone stock suspension right now, but I'm looking at Koni/H&R down the road. Would something more radical like an Aussie ruin my handling traits?

Easily actually, getting off the highway I bottomed out the rear suspension after rolling over a large dip in the road. I'm one of three people (that I know of) that has broken a sway bar at this location. Not only that, but I'm sure my bar was corroded badly and being a small diameter, very little force would be needed to snap it like a tooth pick. That's just my uneducated guess 1997 Thunderbird LX Clairion HU, sub and amp In the works: true duals, headers, cobra MAF In the works: Mustang with a big block
