You're a dufus!  
I designed the Aussie Bar, and let me tell you we didn't go down to Lowe's buy some pipe and weld it onto a Contour and say "That'll do it".

Its not a straight bar with up-turned ends...its go a jog on the passenger side. So you have to perform bends w/out compromising the spring rate. Also...as you can get the Aussie bar (24mm hallow) for say $120..or the BAT bar (22mm solid?) for a little under that...
I think that there are parts you can fab yourself at a shop (trailing arms, caliper brackets, etc..) but anything involving a "spring rate" or rotational resistance involves a little more than eye-balling it...

 Seeing as you haven't even seen it, what makes you think you can frikkin make one with pipe and a welder.
There's some things you should leave to us professionals with experience in vehicle driveline and suspension systems.
I applaud people for wanting to make their own mods and work on their cars themselves. But you are talking about messing with you cars suspensions which could end up killing you and worse still, some innocent person.
