Whiteline rear sway bar

Just got them. The bar looks nice and solid. Wonder what are the 2 brackets used for?
The brackets are they are pretty amateurish welded....

I'd assume they replace the stock mounting brackets for the rear bar.

I agree they don't look real solid though do they...

I may have to look into them as I think the VR's are only 20, I could be wrong.

I don't see why those brackets need to be replaced

Use the stock ones already on the car, I did.

lol...with this fitted, it actually put a lot of stress on my new drop links right now. hope they last

got it installed today. Found that the new brackets have to be used as the new bolts cannot fit the stock brackets. The brackets which holds the bushes cannot fit the stock brackets as well. Went for the stiffest setting and it felt pretty tight at turns.

You put the bush braket on upside down lol
