Question DC Sports Strut tie bar
I saw a DC Sports strut tie bar advertised on the optauto website the other day and it is also up on the DCsports website. Looks like a good bar and DCsports has a good reputation as does the company that just bought them out, AEM. Does any one have this bar yet and what do you think? The list price is only $114 and optauto has it for around $85, sounds like a good deal.

Go to www.optauto.com click on suspension, then strut bars, then mitsubishi, to find it on their site.

It is also up on the DC sports Web site:

I don't see why not. Aem/DC Sports is one of the best aftermarket companies out there. I think you can email them via their web site: www.aempower.com

I had the Freedom Design rear strut bar (looks like a similar design to the DC bar), and it flexed like you wouldn't believe. I got rid of it and put on an RRM rear bar instead. (he just started selling them a few weeks ago). Much better!

FYI for you all, I ordered one of these through a local dealer, who goes through Options Auto Salon. They are on back order till the end of the month. $75 from the local guy. Since they are on back order who has one?
