remember to weld the attachment points if you go with a stiffer bar or you risk ripping them off.

That should fit unless there is something I can't see in the picture.Do you have the ends and drop links?

Same as Brian, Mark K and I have

Mark did you ever replace that 1/2" bolt we installed at the track with the proper one?.

The drop links disconnect at that bolt on the end of the swaybar. It looks to me like your Devek on needs custom ends on the swaybar?

this is probably good news,
as you were warned that adding a stiffer front bar would make the car handle worse.

maybe one day your helpers will help you to hear.
