Upper Stress Bar
Hey All...
Last weekend, I came upon a design for an upper rear stress bar for
my Jetta that you may consider doing to your own cars. I bought a Piece of
1/2"x2"x42" long stainless steel, and decided to make it work as a rear
stress bar. I drilled two holes in the top of the strut housings, and bolted
it in, with two 1" Bolts. That bar has made the biggest difference of any
strut bar / sway bar/ and kind of stress bar that I have put on my car or a
past car, to date. I couldn't believe how much body roll I alleviated by
doing this simple mod.
As part of this, I was considering selling some of them, or seeing if
anyone may be interested in this bar. I will probably sell them in the
$30-35 range, just a bit over what it costs to make them and get them
polished and/or powdercoated. Thats about half the price of a Eurosport or
Neuspeed bar. If anyone may be interested in this, let me know.
I am not doing this to piss off the list, so I don't want any flames,
alright? Its not like am charging $350 for it and saying that it was made by
a guy from neuspeed or anything like that. It was a helpful mod on my car,
and I think it can help a person or two out, so if I could get your reactions
and / or interest, I'd love to hear it. Thanks!!
