Got the swaybar mostly done today after a late start just didn't get the links done because a storm rolled in. Spent probley an hour looking for mounting bolts because the ones I had gotten would've been too short with washers under them and I don't like not using them but everything else went ok.

Mount went in well and will add some extra stiffness to the front...

It doesn't look like it in the photos but there is heaps of clearance on the steering box bolts for the arm to move over them. Super happy so far, just need to get the links finished up and test run/tune

Just didn't get time to finish it today before the storm blew through. I've just got to cut them down to length and fit them but the rain blowing in horizontally at 90 knots put a end to my day. There's always tomorrow.....

Fair enough. Aluminium arms, very jealous Nice work dude

I have been thinking about doing a tube for mine similar to yours, just to protect it a bit.

Yeah I've always liked the look of the alloy arms. I think the tube will help keep the rod out of the weather, cause spring steel likes going rusty! I just drilled a 1/4" hole in the bottom to let any water out if it gets submerged and I can put a rubber blank grommet in it.
