I'm not sure how to contact Oliver ...he used to post on here a while back. Since you are in 'Oz', why are you not using the adjustable Whiteline bars ?

Hi Sandeep,Whiteline bars are nice but there linkages suck,i have an adjustable 18mm bar part no. BWF16Z on a linkpin beam at the moment.I have a spare BJ+IRS pan that i am gathering parts for and am trying VERY hard to minimize eurothane bushes they require frequent lubrication and have too much initial friction,anyway thanks for the reply dude.

You know they've had urethane bushings with grease fittings out for some time now? I agree, had bad experience with using them in the past when you had to disassemble to re-lubricate - but with a grease fitting I think that era is over. These also have grease channels inside to retain the grease.
FWIW, you could have a custom made sway bar made by a couple different companies - could make something near identical to the one shown in the pics.

Thanks Jeff,yeah i saw those grease fittings on some site recently but im still not 100% convinced,i had another look at Sandeeps suspension tech article and i might try Whiteline bars and welded brackets + some rose jointed linkages like Steve C has,its just that basically im lazy and ide rather put together an INTERNET suspension with some beautiful german engineering that only requires a bit of welding anyway thanks guys,Mick.
