Installed my Widefoot Racing Sway Bar Mounts

So after buying David Breslau's Widefoot Racing Sway Bar Mounts during the year end special, I finally got around to installing them this weekend. I've been longing to buy these since I first bought my FD. Glad I waited as the latest iteration of these are awesome and the sale/Group Buy price was cheaper than all previous. Since I'm going to be doing a lot of NASA HPDE events this year I figured I might as well go ahead and upgrade now especially since I'm running a bigger sway bar.

These mounts are billet aluminum are very light. I think the whole assembly is lighter than the stock ones and much easier to install than the stockers. They are like a very cool looking, aluminum work of art. Installation was a breeze also.

My stockers were in good shape thankfully with no cracking under the frame from running my larger Eibach sway bars. I cleaned all the gunk and oil from the sway bar and mounting points and also degreased/cleaned the subframe from my earlier coolant hose failure.

Here are pics of what the finished product looks like installed and a comparison to the stock brackets.

Highly recommend these! Customer service was top notch also.

Looks great alberto

These would work with a blitz fmic correct? I assume I'd just need to bolt up the provided brackets between the mounts and the swaybar. You have that kickass V mount, so you didn't have to worry about that

Yep. It will work with any IC setup actually. Bolts to stock locations with no interference with any of the stock systems. Its nice to have a non-stock, performance upgrade that actually works w/o having to struggle with fitment issues.

I wish other vendors offering "upgraded" parts would spend more time getting things to fit right. This was the one of the easiest things to install with no side affects that I've been able to spot.

Hi gracer7,
Thanks for the kind words, and glad everything went well during the
install (yay for no frame cracks!).

Like I mentioned in Howard Coleman's chassis setup thread (great
topic/content BTW), it's very gratifying when something you made
is really liked by the customer. It makes the hours/days/years of
drudgery in the aluminum mines worthwhile...
