Finally broke my James Baronne rear stabilizer bar

[Lex2007]

Took me 14 years...but it finally cracked at the weld.

I put the OEM bar on in the meantime (no welds to break!). Whatever bump broke the bar also stripped the threads off of both endlinks...which made everything clunk like crazy.

Supposedly the JBR part has a warranty...I even have the original email/receipt. Hopefully he will honor it.

I wanna see if the OEM bar feels "better" or even different. Its been so many years with the super stiff rear bar. Ive gone through 4-5 sets of end links with the JBR end stabilizer bar.

That dude is in jail.

It's up to whoever is running his business in his absence. If at all....

JAIL?!?!

They said the part was on backorder but they would send just the bar as soon as the next batch comes in (from China?).

Who knows...

Not in jail yet. But he was arrested for child porn for putting a camera in a tanning room. Dumbass left video of his back yard and him setting it up.

But he's had protective orders against him. Vehicles seized, and more for the past few years. He's banned here.

Junk it and just get a CorkSport.
