Default Questions for those with Daizen swaybars

Does anyone have experience with the front Daizen sways moving about half an inch sideways? I noticed mine moved about half-inch to the passenger side. I tried to fix it once but it still moved after a couple of weeks. The OEM swaybars on my 2kGS400 have collars to prevent this phenomenon. Anybody experienced this? Is there any fix? Thanks!

you should check to see if your bolts are correctly torqued down. it seems like your bolts are loose. the bushings should not move at all!

when you say move, did any of the bolts got loose or anything? i never look at the sways to see if it's shifted, but i have never had any loose bolts so far

Thanks for the reply. As far as tightening the bolts, I followed the torque specs that came with the swaybars. Interestingly as I mentioned earlier, only the front OEM swaybar has the collars that prevent sideways movement. For comparison, there are no collars and no movements on the rear sway.
