WHo makes the rear sway bar with clamp on ends?

I saw this rear sway bar a couple of years ago. I thought it was tubular (hollow) and where the end links attach, it comes with clamps that you can adjust pretty much infinitely. I can't find this bar to save my life now. What is the name of the company that makes that bar? And is it so hard to find for a reason? . . . as in discontinued, due to those clamps sliding off?

Thanks Found one on ebay for cheap. It was to go on the wife's car so anything that makes noise is a show stopper.

Thanks again!
