Default Where in the PHRUQ can I get a Beaks Kit for my rear ITR swaybar?

I want to install this rear ITR bar on my '92 VX but I can't find the Beaks Mounting Kit, would you please tell me where I can get one? I am asking for links, numbers, locations, etc. of shops that may carry this kit. I live in the L.A. area and can't find a shop that sells the kit.

Any information would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

BTW, I've got the JDM ITR f/r shocks, springs, and LCAs already installed on my VX and the sway bars are USDM.

ESCAVANTE,

how do you like the ride quality and car handling with itr suspension?
did your ride height drop with the ITR srings/struts?

I am considering a similar swap.

thanks

Just buy 2 GSR LCA's shouldnt be too much at all. Easier installation too.
do it the migs way so you can rip out the sway bar out of your subframe. email wil at beaksproducts@hotmail.com for info on the eg/dc kit. you will need this for the itr rear sway bar.

92Hatcher: The ride quality was much improved over my stock VX setup and now the car bounces a little less than my bro's S2000 but more than my M-Roadster. It feels a lot stiffer than stock but never bone-jarring. My dad drove the car before and after the install and he said it was a lot more confidence inspiring, especially at highway speeds. This setup also makes the car feel more solid and/or it doesn't rattle or shake as much when I go over potholes or extrusions on the road surface.

As far as handling, the car now takes turns a lot better with more speed maintained and far less bodyroll (leaning) than stock. With the stock suspension, the car would step out and the chassis would flex a great deal but now it keeps the tires planted and feels solid. It still leans but not nearly as much as it used to and I am pretty sure this will not be an issue when I install the swaybars.

The car was lowered .8" in front and a whopping .4" in the rear over stock. This is the best bang-for-your-buck set-up in my opinion as I only paid $300 for the JDM ITR f/r springs, shocks, and LCAs and $120 extra for the 2 USDM swaybars with all mounting hardware. If you are low on cash and really want something that works but aren't expecting a slamming drop, go for this set-up. Good luck finding this setup for a good price.

Jackson: Thanks for the information and the swaybars' subframe ripping antics are exactly why I want this kit.

B18C_EJ1: Tell me more about this 1 piece kit.

tooqwik1: Where's Autolink located? Do you have their number? If so, please post it. TIA

Jackson: Thanks again and I've already emailed him asking for his address so I could pick the kit up.

Thanks to everyone that responded and I think this'll be an excellent weekend project.
