Re: Autotech tubular SWAY bar (i'm a dumb ass)

[Shawn Rader <s_t_rader@excite.com>]

After looking around at some web pages I noticed that Ground Control, ABD,
and Autotech all sell 22mm, 25mm lightweight hollow swaybars.  Anyone know
if they are all sourcing their bars from the same place and then repackaging
them?  I ordered my stressbar from autotech, but held off on the swaybar.  I
thought I read someones post saying the Ground Control bar used better
mounts, but i deleted the message.  GC charges an extra $40 for the mounts
as opposed to $80 from Autotech, and the bar is the same price ($150). 
Anyone tried the GC sway bar?  
Has anyone tried the BSI racing sway bars?  It looks like they make some
beefy ones.
