hopefullly my sway bar will be here next week, also ordered a bracket and all the calipers and what not for a dual caliper setup in the rear... I like making my own stuff, but it is kinda nice to be able to just bolt stuff on.

got all my brake lines and fittings today, i would have made my own brake lines but i dont have the dies for AN fittings, and i couldnt justify buying the tooling for them considering ill proballyy only use them once.
