Sweet! I guess I will just wait and see how your kit pan's out before I continue to try and find someone to make the bracket's I needed to have made....
Good luck!
BTW these are the collar clamps I was looking at for my kit if your having a hard time finding them....

Thanks _Sloteg_. Those split collars are pretty much the same as the ones included in the AXR kit. I bought a one year old, used AXR kit last week from a forum member who lives near by. The split collars already have a light coat of rust, I can imagine what they would look like after a couple of winters up north. I talked to the fabricator today and they are going to source some aluminum collars.
CulRidr, the purpose of the collars is to prevent the sway bar from moving side to side. They probably aren't doing much, but they are there just in case. If the sway bar were to move to one side it most likely bend or break an end link or two.

Glad that I'm not the only one that didn't see the purpose of those collar clamps..Maybe having those powder coated also might help some with the rusting issue?

ditto ^^
Still waiting on AMM status.
I took a more detailed look at the rubber stops on the sway bar. They can be moved. The stainless steel band is a clamp that can be reused. The rubber part appears to have a light coat of black adhesive (weatherstrip adhesive?), but they will peel off with a little effort. If you reuse the factory rubber stops, the shaft collars are not needed. You should be able to move these stops without removing the sway bar from the car. Aluminum shaft collars are $**.** each with two required if you don't/can't reuse the rubber stops.
Kits will include:
2 powder coated sway bar relocation brackets
2 powder coated bracing straps
4 M10x1.25 nuts welded in place and powder coated (same as factory setup)
4 M10x1.25x25mm yellow zinc plated bolts (same as factory bolts)
Notes:
The kit utilizes the factory sway bar mounting plates #BN7H-28-155A and factory sway bar bushings #BP7H-28-156E (or equivalent)
2 bolts from your factory setup will be used to bolt the bracing strap to the sub-frame at the factory mounting point
Shaft collars (aluminum) will be optional for $**.**/pair
Pricing
10 kits $***
25 kits $***
40 kits $***
50+ kits $**
Shipping not included. The packaged kit will weigh 4 pounds max. Flat Rate Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation will be about $**.00. My zip code is 27295 if you want to checkout FedEx and UPS.

Could this get in the way of a under axle 3 inch exhaust?
I am still waiting on AMM status. I can't accept any orders until the status has been approved.
The sway bar will be about 1/8" lower than a stock MSP or MP3 so if the exhaust clears on a stock sway bar setup it should be fine.

I can't wait. I'm so tired of my squeaky butt.
PS. And I look forward to fixing the rear sway bar.
