Leon,

Dyney is right. To reduce unwanted suspension/body movement uprate the springs, dampers, anti-roll bars and rubber suspension components/bushes.

Not really

sorry!

Some dealers will honour your warrenty if you get them to fit it

Ask you dealer if they will if you got them to fit new anti-roll bars.

It might be worth geting the tracking/alignment checked independatly as Subaru have a very wide tolerance for the alignment figures when they build the cars. It may allow you to smoth out your driving style

Iain.
