To all,
*** Finally Got a price ****
Purchase Ultimate Bracket
I have been obsessed with designing a bracket for the front sway bar. I am not opening another discussion about should you or shouldn't you disconnect the front sway bar. There are already number of threads dedicated for that.
I can summarize and attest that with a disconnected front sway bar, the 80 is more comfortable wheeling, but only gain about 1/2 to 1" of flex. Nothing significant.
What I wanted is a solid bracket that sits with inverted U above the sway bar's axle connection. You simply disconnect the axle side, flip up the sway bar into the inverted U and using the same bolt or pin connect it to my bracket. Unlike some brackets I saw or hanging it with bungee cords, the sway bar end will fit into the U, protecting the rubber bushings and the metal sleeve from getting lost.
Like anyone who got the bug of developing a product, initially I thought, what's the big deal. The more I got under my truck, the more complicated it becomes as to what to do.
Yes, to jerry rig something is possible. But that was not my design goal. My design goal is to provide a turn key solution. A bracket that comes with everything you need to do it EASY.
To that end, every day when I got home, I crawled under my track and disconnected the sway bar, held it up, and reconnected it. Try doing it. You will see that it is not easy. Yes doable, but not easy.
After a week of doing it, I started to understand what to do.
I am having a prototype developed and soon I will have some pictures.
My prototype will make me happy and the whole idea can die with my prototype.
However, I wanted to know if others are interested. If I can get 10 people interested, I am going to run 10 sets.
Simply let me know if you want to be one of the 10 assuming the bracket is great.
