not much like 10 lbs but the stock front frame is scary thin wile helping with a
6 speed install and we had a bar against the front frame pushing the trans up
and the whole front frame was deflecting.

no cad files just a build and test. not that I haven't pondered and made a
seres of educated guesses of forces and copied design ideas from wrc frames.

Leonbmx thanks for the support and the product you took off my hands!

I have worked with the tube sway bar unit and just the install makes the swap worth it. If you ever have to swap a steering rack in service you will be glad you have the tubular unit.
