As I mentioned it's chrome molly tube, gives the rate without the weight (of a solid bar). I'm working on a design for the front swaybar, same material, mostly for the weight saving. The driver adjustment is a bonus on the front, but it is very necessary on the rear.
Being chrome molly with alloy bushes it doesn't need greasing. If you polished your spring steel swaybar, clean off the paint and give it a buff with 200 grit on the linisher, it would only need the occasional spray with RP7.
