I installed one - rather expensive, but with the coil overs, rear sway bar, and control arms, seems to tighten things up a lot.

Why not figure it out yourself...........the original designer should get his due, right?

It would not be wise to simply use the lengths that someone tells you on an internet message board. If you truly plan on making your own, you need to get under your car and take your own measurements.

THANK YOU, the TSW guys put a lot of work into getting it right. There is a jig we use to build these in, and it's not cheap to make these.
