Id  say if anything, the front Addco/PST is TOO stiff
and makes the van jerk around at higher speeds when
you need to change lanes. the front one IS
thicker+stiffer than a stock westy bar, but the
hardware it comes with is crap and doesnt fit well. i
had to machine out one of the bar's holes just to fit
the hardware that the kit CAME with!! and the sales
guy at PST acted like it wasnt a big deal! I'd say the
front PST bar is a bit too stiff IMO. rear pst bar
needs to drill into your frame to fit 'L'-brackets,
hard to do if you dont have pics as both sides are
different AND the bracket comes REALLY close to the
lower swing arm. i hope along with the name change
they improved the
one-page, 1950's-typewriter written instuctions that
the kits come with.
