    I think the people from CavCrew fabricated this sway bar. I contacted a guy named Johnny Adriano for the purchase on facebook. it's made from 19mm 4130 galvanized solid steel bar. feels really solid and you can't bend it by hand. really made the rear more stiff.

    i'm confident that this won't bend and break coz their claims says it's safe. I also made myself a rear upper strut made from some thick hollow galvanized iron with around 20+mm in diameter, used it for numerous months and took it off just recently to repaint it. it's still straight.

    you can look for it posted in the local mirage groups in facebook. it's called JEM ASB Antisway bar

    http://www.miragepilipinas.com/Threa...y-AntiRoll-Bar (it's now priced at 4,000 pesos. with discount if you're an active crew member as per the sellers)

    they do the same thing. the circle earth just have a better looking bracket for attaching the ground wires.. the 'normal' grounding kit just has an L bracket for all the wires.

    so why is the circle earth system triple the price of the grounding kit?

    added a ducktail spoiler using a rubber lip skirt. found one for cheap, 800 PHP, that's a lot thicker and sturdier than the ones I used for my front bumper.

    though I think the soft flexible ones are better for the fronts of lowered cars coz it won't break off easily and just flex while scraping ramps.
