***SOLD***: Calgary AB - Ankeny Racing Enterprises Front Sway Bar

I sold my S2000 and the new owner decided not to take the sway bar with the car. This is a dual adjustable blade sway bar. I bought this sway bar new back in 2010 and i've set both adjustable blades on the full stiff position since day one as I only ran the car in Solo II and there wasnt much point in adjusting the sway bar to anything else other than full stiff.
After 4 years of the blades being left in the full stiff position, it appears that they may be seized since I cant rotate it even with the adjustment bolt removed. The car has never seen snow/salt so im just guessing it's just seized from the road grime/being splashed on when driven in the rain. Maybe some PB blaster and some coaxing will get the blades free again, im too lazy to try so my loss is your gain. (Edit: Blades have now been unseized. Full functionality has been restored, both blades are now adjustable).
I love this bar and it totally transformed the handling of the car after I installed it. A must for any autocrosser! All mounting hardware and endlinks included.

Bump! A good friend of mine was able to get the blades unseized! So basically now the bar is back to a dual adjustable sway bar and the blades have a nice coat of anti-seize so they wont seize for a long time. I paid over 1000 for this bar brand new and I think now that it is fully functional again, im justified in raising my asking price slightly to $650 + Shipping.
