Addco sway bars

I was browsing on ebay and came across a front sway bar made by Addco.

Addco 114 Front Anti Sway Bar Stabilizer Roll | eBay


I searched the pelican forums to find some of the 911 owners had used addco.

It seems too good to be true for $120


Any body out there used or installed this brand before?


i have a 1970 914 - that did not come with a sway bar


Thanks
Austin

Looks to be under-body. Cannot be made adjustable, and can be a bit of a pain to fit. The body-side links probably attach to the bolts that hold the front of the steering rack, the way the 911 under-body bars do.

Through-body style would be better, but probably more expensive.

It's difficult to tell which attachments (under-body or A-arm) are included; I'm not sure all of them are there in the pic.

After reading the entire Addco catalog 20 years ago not only did I know Addco did not have a good bar for my car but it seemed they had a 1 size fits all theory developed in the early 1970's. Unless something has changed since then I would look at other alternatives.
