WTB: HD rear sway bar mounts

[zch91]

A trusty rule and some accurate eye sight is all you need, I know it's a bit of an ask but there would be a whole heap of good Karma's coming your way hehe!

I just looked on eBay for interests sake and you can get stainless digital calipers for $10 delivered! wtf.

Wha??? For that price you'd be losing money if you didn't buy them, wouldn't trust them for critical measuring however. Damn how much do they charge for a set of HD sway bar mounts?

Lol. They're obviously just chinese quality, but hey they might be handy.. There are heaps of them on there for less than $30.

As for mounts.. They're well over the $100 mark, I don't think they're on eBay

Cusco hd mounts from Phat are $85

Anyone know how much phat charges for the AVO ones?

[tuned sti]

It's pretty straight forward making either and I definitely like the AVO ones more having now refreshed my memory, did the AVO's come supplied with longer bolts and the rubber bushes or just the brackets? Cheers for the pics

AVO's are just the brackets only.

Why the sale Benny? If you don't mind me asking! Did they make a noticeable difference?

Any HD RSB mount is a very good idea given the chassis setup which can flex or fail even with the stock RSB.
Have a look to see for yourself!

The AVO HD RSB mounts are tied into the subframe bolts requiring a breaker bar to install.
The Cusco HD RSB mounts can be installed with hand tools as they reinforce just the part of the chassis to which the RSB is attached to...

I've seen plenty of pics of snapped swaybar mounts on the Gen4's.. Surprising that Whiteling claim the stock ones are sufficient!

D'ya think AVO went overboard with that design?

[bigBADbenny]

Yes... And no...
If running an upgrade rsb on the hard setting the AVO might be preferred...

Installed my AVO brackets this afternoon.. Good bit of kit!

[paggaz]

I've just been under the car to install the swaybar and decided ideally I'd like a pair of AVO ones, or AVO style ones, if you're willing to make some custom sets for $$ chook. I like the idea of the extra subframe bracing. Otherwise, I might opt for those Cusco ones from you Ben...
