Well you can make your own subframe brace, for alot cheaper then the control FX one.

about $30 and 1 hour of work.

ControlFX no longer exists, so you will not find any retailers carrying their items.

At the present time, nobody makes a rear tie bar. I believe RK Sport carries a tie bar.

rksport carries a subframe but basically its similar in overall function of resisting inward flex..

considering making your own consists of buying 3 parts... 1 radius rod, 1 heim joint, another heim joint.

and simply screwing the heim joint into the ALREADY threaded bar, i really wouldnt see what the problem is with making your own. besides the fact that you dont get any company stickers, its literally the same thing....well unpainted.... but its 3 parts that simply screw into each other then add the tie bar...

well thanks guys for the help. now I can stop searching for those items. I'm not lazy either with my job and where it's at it makes it difficult to fabricate parts, but I guess now I'll have to. thanks again
