Dan,
For the record, I have the SCA bar that once clunked and now does not. The difference? I replaced the polyurethane bushings with new ones and the clunk went away. For the record, I don't have the weld-on bracket fix.

Dan,
The bar when installed with all the components; Prothane Polyurethane Endlink Bushings, and Prothane Polyurethane Sway bar bushings (with dacromet coated steel brackets) should eliminate any chance of clunking or creaking, as all interfaces will be supported by poly bushings instead of the junk rubber OEM bushings. The stock endlinks are retained, but the stock bushings on the endlink are replaced (see pictures). The bracket supplied is not used, the way I have the bar on the car. The stock brackets are opened slightly, with the help of a vice and pliers to accomodate the slighter chunkier sway bar bushing, BUT I will provide a template to create a weld on backing plate that can be used to increase the strength of the stock backing plates AND make use of the supplied brackets if people so desire.
I haven't had to use them (the supplied brackets), and I have not visually seen, nor heard any evidence of a problem to require to do so. But the fact that you will have brackets will allow each user to add them if a problem does arrise.

Appreciate the info Aussie, perhaps the endlink bushings are the difference. Got to think about this as I have the SCA bar.
Will you sell the endlink bushings separately?
Will your bar be avail in future is is this just a one run deal?
Munson, what new bushings did you use - did you get a redesigned peice from SCA?
Thanks.

Thanks. I can sell you the endlink bushingss separate, they are $15 Also I am in negotiations with BNMotorsports and have had inklings from other vendors also, so I HOPE that this will Not be a one run deal. Understand that vendors will have to add a markup to make it profitable for them to supply the bars in the future. It's only fair. Thus the reason why I am running a group buy now. Buyers please note that total price with shipping is $120

Actually 41xx chrome/molybdenum alloy steel is "low alloy". You probably meant "low carbon". Originally posted by Munson:
It's also nice to see that the bar is 41xx steel instead of some junk low alloy bubblegum.
