Installing this cobbled together front sway bar today ...

It's been 24 hours. Did you get your bar installed on your junk? Or you just talkin about it still? lol
No, I'm still stuck on small, no fun stuff to do. As soon as I get past a lot of the small stuff, I'll do the bar to "reward" myself, I'm actually excited to install the bar, it's definitely something I will feel every second I drive the car
