[QUOTE="Auburn, post: 1360230, member: 5661"] So it has been a while since I have posted. L:ife and work got in the way. I had minor (I thought) problem to solve. That was how to do a sway bar. After the idea of using a snowmobile sway bar was floated, it got me to searching for one that would work. The first one I found on eBay would work it was "W" shaped, but figuring out how to mount easily was beyond my skills. Then I searched again on eBay and found the one in the pictures below. Mounting was something I could figure out with this one.

The bushings are 1", ended up using a Rigid Conduit 2 hole strap to hold. Took a while to find something that would work [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/lUsPtCO.jpg[/IMG] After setting up, I stroked the air shocks through their full stroke, everything moved smoothly, no binding. Bounced on each side of trailer, and it just sat there flat, just what I want. So initial tests are promising. We'll see once I get it a little further along to do a ride test. [/QUOTE]
