Re: aluminum sway bar collars....are these to good to be true?
Wow good find... unless it's too good to be true.
They had a pic of a one piece and a two piece, i couldn't see how you choose between them there on the website but you definitely want two piece collars
Re: aluminum sway bar collars....are these to good to be true?
definately the 2 piece one is needed of course......I am figuring these gotto work I mean one of the posts above said to just use hose clamps, and that is not the first time I have seen that answer also
Re: aluminum sway bar collars....are these to good to be true?
Those would work great.

Re: aluminum sway bar collars....are these to good to be true?
Any collar should work.. Lots of stuff is like that. Someone locates the standard part somewhere, buys and then sells them as a FJ (or whatever) part at 500% markup.. Ron
PS: I'm not saying that's entirely bad or that you intend to do that, just a comment on merchandising

AL is great stuff, within it's operational limits. Shine it up a little with a buffing wheel and clearcoat it.. My favorite finish for AL is a light sand/bead blasting followed by clearcoat. Ron

I have painted steel ones on right now so AL would be great.

Just to give you another resource to compare to, p/n 6436K143 from McMaster-Carr they want $8.70 each. I think they increased price due to the price of metals going up, they used to be $7.92. Sounds like your source is legit. The Aluminum ones are less expensive than the steel/stainless steel ones for sure. The 304 SS are $18 each and the 316L are $37 each. Good Luck, Doc
