For those situations where the Dynatech bar is too subtle.

Actually, I'd rather have one that is rigid so that it can't let the whole body move. Single bolts in clevises can let the "square" rotate over to become a "parallelogram." I actually like the factory turbo cup one better, since it can't let the towers move.

I think the guy that originally made them realized how much work he was doing for not enough $!

True - but anybody that is serious about a stiff shell should toss the aluminum cross member (complete with slotted holes!) and weld in a steel version. Way stiffer body!

Geez, those strut tower mounting parts are a thing of beauty, hiding them under paint is just not right

I can try to contact him
But these bars were not cheap and some people on this board now, might have a stroke if they see the cost ....
A lot of these were sold to a lot of Rennlist members ( so I don't know how many would buy it ?) I would think it would take more than 10 for him to jump back in it but that is a pure guess on my part ...

I don't believe he went under ... He has (real ) job and did this on the side

LOL
I have to agree ... I like the bare aluminum version ... He did offer for those who wanted it a different color (anodized ) but I believe that was mostly for the camber plates ?

I will buy two Eddie along with the Camber plates! I had my bar welded today. I have been sanding for hours now, not on the bar but the mounts. They were in very bad shape from the PO. I don't think I can finish this tonight. The welded part looks **** though. Never could tell the dings were there.

That is because it has been too damn long since you have seen a pair, Ha!!! Too much time polishing! Well, you must be rubbing off on me, my hands are raw after sanding for so damn long. I should have went to HF and bought some air tools. Some progress on removing all welds is below:
