Cheap fix for Civic body roll

[ziconceo]

As I'm sure some of you 99 civic owners know, on sharp turns the car has really bad body roll. Luckily I had a spare trampoline around and made a cross brace out of it. Now my car feels like a bmw lol. Less vibration and the ability to make sharper turns at speed are the result!

The center was bent with a pipe bender to increase rigidity even more.



You'll notice from the pics I'm more of a practicality over looks kinda guy with my car lol

Well, that's one way to do it!

That must be the most (effectively) ghetto strut bar I've ever seen, and yet its still not ricey. Spray paint it a bright color and that opinion may change.

Whatever works haha. I appreciate custom work that doesn't suck, even if a brand new strut bar is only $20

that's true also. if it works, and its still safe, then why not??

Exactly, and tbh, OP's trampoline bar looks good. I can't judge welds though.

Yea but those 20$ ones are ricer aluminum pieces of trash haha My strut will never warp or bend.

The welds are ugly haha Galvanized steel isn't the best candidate.
