Observe... this is the last time you'll ever see my front swaybar.

In other news... my ghetto radiator skid is on it's 3rd coat of paint. It's got a couple bends in the unsupported edges, but is otherwise unfazed by my regular abuse. :excited:

Hey fishticks, let me know if you sell the parts, as I broke one of the mounting bolts (and *might* need the thing that holds the bar onto the frame. At least until I decide to either remove it or get the quick discos.
This is an aggressive post. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate a post of this quality and depth.
