The bars from this thread, Project - Hip Replacement - are for sale.
They are unfinished. They need to have the snap rings and inner bushings purchased. Bushings could be made out of Delrin if you see fit or you can purchase stock arms and push the bushings out and install them. The bushings, bearings, high misalignment spacers, snap rings, and sway bar knuckles will then need to be installed. The knuckles or "dog bones" are new from Tousley and have been blasted, primed, painted, and cleared.
The bars are a one-off piece so there is a slight risk involved with the purchase being that they have never been installed or put to the test. While this may sway the majority away, the reward for having these one of a kind conversational/show pieces far outweighs the tiny bit of risk in my opinion. I was going to run them in my SVT before I sold it so that should say a little something about trust factor.

I'm asking $800.00 obo.

Keep in mind these are custom CNC'd bars. There was 8 hours machine time in a single bar, multiply 16 by $100/hour, $380 in professional polishing, $40 dog bones, $60 misc. SS bushings, bearings, misalignment spacers, and the $45 in machine time for those small parts and you start to see real quick what I had into them. This doesn't even take into consideration the overall design time or the 6061 T6 bar stock.

If you have any questions let me know.
