Default Reason why Comptech never made ITR Sway?

I was wondering why Comptech USA never made a Sway Bar/Tie Bar Combo for the ITR application? I just got some itr spec flex's and want to run the comptech brace but they dont make one for the itr control arms im guessing? Wonder why...

It might be due to the different lower control arms on the ITR?

As far as I know it will fit ITR no problem. However, I would recommend you to give them a call and talk to them in person. The only different is the bottom bushing on their spherical end link.

Maybe because there is nothing wrong with the oem ITR stuff. It's much beefier than the normal teg subframe, plus it already has a rear lower tiebar stock.

Why spend money when the upgrade does nothing?

I think it is because the ITR rear subframe is slightly different.

I run an asr rear brace and itr rear swaybar with itr lca's and with factory endlinks, the positioning is perfect. I am sure the comptech, with it's adjustable endlinks will work without a problem.

Swaybar endlink attachment is in the identical position on Eg/DC2 (non-R) and ITR LCAs. You don't need ITR stuff to work.

A quick call to comptech would have answered your question.
