Nice piece, Scott!

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but are you using a curved sway bar arm? I ask because the bar tube seems pretty close to the height of the LCA mounts.

Any pics of the bar "mocked" up in there with the end links, etc?

The center of the sway bar is 1.25 higher than the LCA mount center.And I bent the splined sway bar arm so there is no binding with 1/2 rod end links.

Ah. Are you using a M/F heim set up for the end link?

Did I see that you are going to build an all aluminum frame also? Thanks, Garry.
