Hmmm....

We may be able to swing something, we'll see. We own S197's and of course have many local customers who track their cars, so that would probably be the route we go with....but who knows.

Maybe the people who give us the best ideas, that come to fruition, would get a little "sumpin sumpin"

Well, after testing out various designs for quite some time now....we have chosen a 38mm / 1.50" Front Sway-Bar. The wall thickness is .219".

This bar will have a wide range of adjustment (5-Way/Position).

We realize this bar will be overkill for some, but we will have a wide range of adjustment that will suite "the majorities" needs. We also believe that this bar is going to prove to work really well for the guys searching for the best anti-roll characteristics, without utilizing a "super rate" spring.

Anyhow, here is the bar on our car that we are almost done with, as far as durability testing is concerned. I also have this bar on a few cars that are putting them to the test on course.

That looks interesting. Seems to be a direct competitor to the Hotchkis front bar. I'm interested in what the rear sway bar will be that will matched to this one. Hopefully it is adjustable as well.

I love drag racing but I drive my car in the street a lot and I see sway bars needed. Weight still one of my concerns. Maybe chrome moly material cold be something to consider or it will be too expensive?

Man, what an awesome piece, I finalized our rear design today.

I know we will have a few naysayers, claiming that moving the ends of the bar inward slightly, is not the way to go, but.....I think we NAILED it.

Our new rear bar design will work with any LCA Relocation Bracket, provide excellent clearance for wide tires, retain the factory chassis mounted end-links, and enable people to not need a sway-bar relocation for select wheel applications. It will also provide a super wide range of stiffness adjustment.

Woot!

^ HAHAHA!

Sorry man, I can't post pics until we are close/er to releasing it.

It will be a hollow 25mm design, with a .219" Wall....and the softest setting will be about 15%~ stiffer than a factory base 11+ GT rear bar.

Front bar should be available in a month or two, rear bar likely 3-4. The owner wants to wait to release both F/R together....but I'm likely going to persuade him to release them as they're ready.

I think that a-arm support, radiator support and that "BMR" brace between the k member and rad support are on my wish list. That just looks awesome.

It will be very similar to the shape of an OEM bar, so it should be no issue clearing most Watts Links.

It will definitely clear our Watts. ;)
