stronger sway bar bracket

Have anyone ever used Mazdatrix or Mazdamotorsports stronger sway bar bracket. I'm talking about the one that is the radiator mount/sway bar mount bracket. I looked at the Mazdatrix one and its looks real beefy, i havent seen a pic of the Mazdamotorsports one yet, but i think they said that some other company makes it for themselves. My current brackets are pretty bent. Woudl i still need to get that reinforcement brace if i go with the upgraded bracket. I'll most likely be using the Suspension Techniques sway bar kit and their springs. Maybe, i'll put in my nylon bushings all at the same time. I wonder how harsh my ride will be?

Get the Widefoot Racing swaybar mounts from David Breslau. Nothing has a better design or better construction. Do a search on sway bar mounts and you'll find more info.

The M2 and SR units are stronger since they replace they replace the fragile brackets. I believe that Mazdatrix and Pettit use the Racing Beat reinforcer. I use the RB one - works great. I had to replace one of the stock mounts first and then put on the reinforcer. It helps to loosen up both sway bar to frame brackets to get it on. I replaced the swaybar bushings while I was at it. The main reason I went with RB is that it was cheaper and I've had excellent luck with RB products over the years.
