wonder bar

Just wondering how wide the stock wonder bar is? Just picked one up off ebay and it seems aweful short (for some reason I was expecting something fairly long).

thanks.

Its not very long at all but it will make a Massive Diff. i know i just installed mine. I had to get one to take the stress load off of the weak and cracking frame. fixed the cracks i just dont trust it to hold again on its own.

Ok, i guess this is right then. It is about 2 1/2 of my feet long (size 12). It is really deceiving because when you see pictures of them on ebay, they look basically as long as a swaybar!

91 may be much closer to being correct. Check the pics in the following link:
