Had it positioned too high (needed to shorten the turnbuckles) and the bar needed to be much larger in diameter along with a few other changes needed but here's a pic of how it initially looked.

[Krandall]

how do you have those bars attached to the main bar that's hooked to the frame?

[Mad Dog]

Flat stock welded to the main bar, bolts to the bumper mounts.  Just hidden a bit behind the bumper, hard to see.  If a fella could rig a set of clamps to work with one of the existing swingarms that'd be best.

Edit: I meant swaybars instead of swingarm...using a commercial product and making a mount to fit it.

Swingarms?  Or a-arms?

And I'm assuming. the main bar going across. there's a rod inside correct?

Correct

Guess it depends if you like powerdercoat and anodized metal or chrome.  Though rath does have a carbon fiber one out now that I see the website and durablues have gone up in price to about the same as a rath.  Still no 700 or 660 listing for the swaybars though that I could see on their website.

  Are you guys pre-loading the sway bar?  If so what do you have for weights on each corner?   I'm still on the learning curve for sway bar adjustments...

Here's some pics I took last night of my home-made sway bar and mounts,  It's not the prettiest but it works and cost me about $30.

freaking awesome. Thanks for the pics Sully!

  I painted my a-arms and sway bar with Rino-lining and I can't believe how well it holds up!  Looks decent and is rock-hard.
