Since them chunky IPD(like) sways bars are expensive items (imo), I figured a cheeper solution would have to be possible, so I started tinkering and fitted two sway bars, instead of the one stock.

Basicaly, I made up two new brackets to hold the bars and fitted a second sway bar below the stock bar. The bottom (extra) bar only just clears the pitman arm of the steering box, but it works like a charm!

The result is very satisfactory. I did the whole chore in a few hours. Cornering has become much better; not as good as a 'real' chunky sway bar, but still a great improvement. I just thought I'd share it with you. See the pic.


Cheers, ben.
