I didn't have the money to buy some strut bars right now but I really wanted them. So, I decided to try my hand at making some of my own. They feel great and the handling is much improved. Here are a few pics.

Probably not. They took forever to get the fine tuning on and I wouldn't dare try to sell some and hope that they fit exactly right.

Yes the markers are shaved. I liked the look without them. For the cross bar I used 3/4 in hollow square tubing. It is really strong and only cost about $14 at Lowe's Home Improvement.

Yeah I know it is filthy. I need to have it detailed. BUT, in my defense, I have been gone with the military for the last six months and my baby has been at home with my brother. So that helps explain why she is so dirty. I have only been back for four days and haven't had a chance to take care of it.
