Ok guys, I built a prototype this afternoon to show you what I have. The bars and joints are some kind of zinc coated and the rest of the parts will be painted black. These clamp to the front of the spring and pivot off of the spring clamp. They push on the back of the spring eye, so there is no binding or stress points They are complete bolt on, no drilling cutting, dropping the gas tank or anything. Should be able to install them in about and hour.

This first batch will be $280 a pair, shipped. Please paypal me at kybrown@gmail.com with shipping instructions, unless you want to send a check. I will be building and shipping these next week. They will be on a first come first sever basis. If I get more then 5 of you who pay, It only takes me a couple days to get more materials, so shouldn't be any hold ups. PM me with any questions.

Thanks, Kyle

I don't like long bars, as they don't pivot on the same radius at the spring does, so as your suspension travels, it's consistently binding up and putting stress on the mounts. Plus you have to weld or bolt mounts to the frame to install them.
