I've been waiting for this seller to list these again.  He's a regular, so even if you miss it this time, he should put them back up in a couple of months.  I went again and got them, its like 1/2 the price of anywhere else.  Now I just need to find inexpensive sway bars and i'm set!

 It is Just Suspension offering them. Can you get to their regular website? You maybe able to order direct off their site or give them a call instead of waiting for ebay.

Their regular site shows them at $249. Of course it also says they're still in production and won't ship until Jan 1 2010, so I'd say their site is a little behind the times. There are multiple listing for the same bars on eBay, all show more than 10 available and they're available as a "buy it now", so no waiting for the auction to end.

I ordered 2 sets to take care of both my Darts, hard to pass up since I got 2 sets for the price of 1 from anywhere else. So far I've already received notification that JS got my payment, I can keep you guys updated on the progress of my order if anyone is interested.

Eric, if you're in Washington DC, I'm on my way up to that area in about 2 weeks. I have a stock front sway bar with one frame mount and no end links that's yours if you want to come pick it up around Woodbridge.

Just got home from my trip and I was able to get my set.   :2thumbs:

Had to do something to bring my spirits up....got a $130 speeding ticket on the way home.....  :banghead:  First one in YEARS.

Anyways, thanks for posting the original post! Awesome!

Wonder if the stock dust boots work?  I have to order new ones anyways.....

Thanks for the heads-up on these.  I was going to get a set of the DC 0.960" bars but I'll get these instead.  Nice deal.

As I post this, Ebay shows 36 'Cuda and 39 Challenger pairs remaining (no idea why the seller posted them separately).  They also have tubular upper control arms for $160/pair, unfinished.

the stock boots will stretch far enough to go over the 1"
 I already bought the .96 for a good price otherwise I would be on this as well

Awesome!  Do the aftermarket energy boots work the same? They seem to be very inexpensive...like $15...whereas the stock style are $35-40 for a pair.   :22yikes:
