Are g37 sedan sway bars compatible with the 07-08 g35 sedan sway bars? The reason I ask is that I've read the sway bars for the g37 Sport are different from the g37 Journey. Though I'm not entirely sure if this is true. If they are compatible I'd like to try the g37 Sport sways on my 07 g5x.
They are identical. Sport and Journey doesn't make a difference.
AWD sway bar we have is#: 56230-JK000
RWD sway bar is#: 56230-1EA0C

Maybe this will clear some things up 4 me and others. In this pic we need the bar #1 and the bushing #2 we don't need the clamp #3 or endlink #4. Is this correct?

I ordered a Stillen rear sway bar today from Stillen. They sold it to me for $146 plus some necessary bracket for about $13. It has two places to mount it which either give it 7% stiffer than the stock sport bar, or 70% stiffer than sport bar. I have to order some bushings for a stock sport bar since mine car is an X. I'll post how it drives after I mount it.

Does Hotchkis sell the rear bar only, and if so, through what vendor, and at what price? The stock rear bar from the non-x is somewhat of a known quantity, but the adjustability of the Stillen or Hotchkis bars might be an advantage.

Does Stillen sell them as compatible for the X? Guess not
I look forward to get your input.

Well, I was going to use a Stillen rear sway bar, but when I called today to see why it wasn't here yet, the salesman told me that they are on backorder! It would have been nice to know that when I ordered it Monday. I specifically recall him telling me that I should look for it by the end of the week. Today they tell me that it will be next Wed. before they get them in, at the earliest.
I cancelled that order and ordered a RWD sway bar from Grubb's Infiniti. He told me that it will ship Monday and be here Tuesday. So, there won't be a review from me about the Stillen. I swear their customer service is not what it use to be.

Anytime you install a bigger bar (OE, Stillen or otherwise), you need bigger bushings.
I have a 2008 G35xS with a RWD sway. It is a big upgrade. There is no sway bar difference between the x and xS models. Same with the RWD cars. The journey and sport have the same sway bars.
