Yeah it worked out great... Not only is it half the price, but i like the design of it a lot better then the flaming river. (pinch bolt instead of a bunch of jam nuts)

Thanks for recommending it!

Today after work i finished up modifying and installing my new front sway bar. Ive already switched bars a few times trying to find one that will work with the factory mounts. The 2 Jeep bars ive used in it fit great, but the tires rubbed hard and cut down my turning radius a ton.

This one is from an 06 ford mustang...

I drilled new mounting holes and cut about 2 inches off of the length of the arms. It seems to have almost the perfect shape to it, it allows the tires to turn enough to hit the leafs, which is way more then ever. Im going to mess with the steering stops and then ill be happy.

great info, ive been looking for a while(not hard mind you) for something that would have the right width and profile. You wouldn't happen to have the overall width of that bar, would you?

The overall width to where the endlinks mount was ~41" if i remember correctly... the narrow end was ~35", and the "arms" were 13" from center of the bar to center of the mounting hole. I drilled holes at 11" on center for my setup.
