That has the bolt in lower control arm tabs for cars that don't have lower with the factory welded in ones. I would buy a sway bar from one of the other guys for $150 anf just make-up some tabs and weld them in.

I don't have everything set up on my new hard drive yet so I can't resize the pic, but the tab just needs to come of the lower edge of the LCA and have an attachment point for the bushing. I'll post pics from work tomorrow (I've got more pics there anyway).

Ok, here's some tab pics.
The first pic is a stock LCA without the sway bar attached.
The second pic is a home-hacked one. The bar fit better below the tab.

Attached is the picture of the Firmfeel front swaybar and the bolt-in LCA bar tab. Hope you can see it from the picture. I didnt have it out yet - so I dont know how well it works. The Firmfeel bars are topnotch quality though..
