Go to spohn or tds they both have installed pics but both of thier products are meant to fit different lengths (has some elongated bolt holes). the best way to make one is to get under your car and measure it out. It goes right above your sway bar and gets kinda pinched in between the sway bar and the strut towers. works like a strut tower brace for the bottom and works very well.

I built mine by just going under there and measuring. Weld on the bolt brackets to a piece of pipe and mark the holes where to drill. It's really easy the hardest part was painting it. I built mine out of 1.25" square stock. I can't remember what the exact length was but 4' works, i think it was right around 40"

Wonder bar.Lower front strut......

Wonder Bar......Yes this does beef up the front end,im making one for mine,my brackets are prfabricated to sit between the roll bar mounts and the frame,with a piece of 40 mm dia tube straight between,this also provides a substantial beef up for the steering mechanism as well.By the way,im a dumbass Limey camaro owner in the UK,i know we have different sayings for things,ie petrol UK...............Gas USA
Boot UK.................Trunk USA
Bonnet....................Hood USA
Pile of S**T UK...................***** **** rocket.
Shopping trolley UK.................***** **** rocket USA.
Just a couple of our different phrases,please absolutely no offense meant by this at al but what does LOL mean? I see it crop up everywhere,and I would love to know what it means.One more phrase here perhaps someone could complete this..

"********"person who drives or pushes or inhabits one of these "shopping trolleys"(remember guys your term *****)

What is your phrase for this type of person????

Remember also please help me out with what your saying LOL means,seen it everywhere dont know what it means.toecutterv8.
