Is the rear sway bar something a guy with a chop saw, drill press, and a mig welder could make?
I really like fabricating versus buying if possible.
Also.....any pictures of sway bars installation projects?

an anti-roll bar is a torsion bar, kinda like a spring. the steel is mathmaticly twisted when it is formed. to build one would require some kind of twisting machine and some forging hammers and some fancy dial calipers and lots of math, minimum. you can however build ladder bars and strut bars as they are not sprung steel but rigid body suspension....
