Heavy duty rear sway bar mounts

I am planning on ordering a cusco adjustable rear sway bar for my 2006 wrx sedan. I will be either setting at 20mm or 22mm most likely. I also have order some kartboy endlinks. My question is...

Do I need to buy heavy duty sway bar mounts if I'm probably staying at 20mm or 22mm.
Is it highly recomended or not really necessary?

I say mod them when they , excuse me, IF they break. I have my rear 21mm set to medium (equal to 23mm) and front 21mm with no problems. Probably going to get the endlinks soon.

The rear mounts were upgraded for the 2004 model. Only 2002 & 2003 are a must upgrade with a bigger rear bar.

My bad on the wrong info above. I bought the 22mm f &R and the adjustables are sold as the middle setting being the advertised dimension. So the available settings are from 20-24mm



BTW I just changed the rear to the hardest setting and me like. Way less understeer. Although I will have to drive it around a little more to see if I will keep it here or go ahead and get the bigger/adjustable front to help compensate.

You won't need them with that sway bar, infact I think you can't use them with Cusco sway bars, there not designed for it
