These guys may be a bit less expensive, and I know for a fact it's the same
ADDCO bar.

Installation is fairly unsettling.  The rear requires a fair amount of
drilling into the frame and trailing arms...  ONe thing to note is to make
sure you have the unused portion of the u-bolt situated inboard of the frame
mounts.  THis will keep the bar from hitting the nut/bolt.  Hard lesson
learned.

The front sway bar mounts aren't well suited to the stock arrangement.
You'll see when you get there, heheh.  Again, you'll have to drill holes
(stock is one hole and a tab, this config requires two holes) and either
fabricate shims or shave down the poly bushing to fit snug, since the
mounting surface isn't flat.

Pretty fun once it's done tho!  Again, let me know if you need pics.  One of
the list members had a site up about it at some point.

Happy trails!
