Mon Jul 08, 2013 3:56 pm by Admin
For the benefit of 944Hybrids users there are two search functions available for you to use.
The purpose of this sticky is to explain the "Advanced Search" function because it is much more powerful and is the best choice when researching information.

Front sway bar reinforcement: help?
I'd like to make a front sway bar reinforcement. You know the piece that triangulates the mount to the crossmember?
Anyways, i'm figuring all the pre-made ones won't work because our crossmembers are dropped 1/2".
So i was looking at materials on McMaster-Carr. I thought stainless would be nice because it won't rust, but then i'm not sure on how it would fatigue (aren't stainless steels more likely to fatigue?). Or i could go steel, or maybe there's a good aluminum alloy to use?
And how thick? I figured 1/8" would be enough?
Just looking for any input before i spend the bucks to get some materials.

I had been looking at 301, so you think that's a good choice? It looks like about $40 for 60" of it.
