I've been looking all over for one of these, but oh well. Already got a eBay rear lower tie. It's the round one, looks better than the old flat design.

hmm... that's 99 for a tie bar, not a strut. ;)

a rear tie bar can help wonders. Especially when used along with an upgraded rear sway. I'm sure that's why neuspeed, comptech, and progress both have rear sway/tie bar combos. if you buy that rear tie bar and a rear 22mm ctr sway, that would end up being cheaper than most of the ones I just mentioned...unless the price on progress has dropped

my bad..i thought i read somewhere that tiebars just keep things together. and dont really do much.

im just gonna buy a ebay one and have someone weld it.

same thing what I thought the bar does.

welding it huh? I wanted to do that also, but to late now, heheh. I don't wanna remove the damn bar anymore. Took me forever to get on, heheh. eBay tie bar is like 30 bucks and paying someone to weld it be like....20 bucks? Still good.

the ends of skunk2 could spin and adjust in length. if that's the case why not buy a eBay tie bar? save 100 dollars, it's the same setup.

yup yup, very good. but for spoon's price, no no. :'( that bar does allow flex too. you got a good setup, not saying its bad.

one piece lower tie bar is better than ones that arent. if the purpose of the lower tie on our car is used to reinforce the lower rear. Then wouldn't a one piece be more stiff than one that allow flex?
