No. There's a stiffener down there, but no lower tie bar.

Yes and no....it is a stiffener becuase it doesn't actually make contact with the suspension mounts like the lower tie bar does. Technically it just reinforces the frame which the suspension is mounted to.

It's not a tie bar. I don't know exactly what it is called, but I know what it isn't.

Chris - who wonders why someone would call themself a dodohead.

It's a stiffy, not a tie bar. I have a tie bar and a stiffy, it's fun to kick the *** end out

if you make and weld on some brackets, it would. but you could instead just weld a bar there.

the subframe on the ITR is different, so it will not just bolt up if that's what you meant.

What Dave said.

Just get a larger diameter sway bar or upper strut bar. Tie bars are the blizzle, they don't really do anything compared to a sway bar, or even a strut bar.
