I used one of these. About 19 dollars I think. Cut the ends off it and extended it with some thick tubing. Then welded the schackle that I found at tractor supply with the brace for 13 dollars. The xpensive part was the bottom hiem joint which I bought from Summit racing for 22$. Next time I would just buy another one of the bars like I found at tractor supply and keep the one side I didn't use as a spare. All in all it cost me around 60$s.
Only thing I'm going to change is the front bottom shackle pin. The heim joint and the shackle pin are different diameters. I'm going to get the right bushing and some shock bushings for each side.
Amazing difference in traction and stopping. No more stuttering.
And since the previous owner mounted one without a shackle And it ripped out of the crossmember I patched the holes and added a strap over the top and welded it for added support.
