The Swaybar:
I used the front part of a Hot Racing Swaybar kit for a Bomber, the chassis bushings I got from MOFO Rc, Links down below for those. I assembled and drilled them out gently with a 1/8" bit to fit the 1/8 piano wire for the torsion bar. I also drilled out the bar ends of the Hot Racing arms to fit the new bigger bar. Very carefully I cut a flat on each end of the bar so the arm set screws would hold in place. The links to the axle are approximately 68mm long eye to eye so use whatever you have to achieve that. At the bottom I used a spacer from a kit from Dixieland RC to make up the gap, I went back later and added one to the top to straighten up the links. Hope this helps!! I have put links to the swaybar kit down below and the Castle esc and holmes motor or equivalent, please use them to support Exocaged RC Thanks!!!
Hot Racing Swaybar, I can only find the set, its possible the rear part may go right in with longer links.

In my opinion, yours is the best set-up I've seen so far. Those housings will handle all the 4s power you can put trough'em now. The choice of running a Castle/Holmes system is the best change, control-wise, I've seen. You need an excuse to get a raw 500 or 777 now. That thing is awesome, bubba.

I’ve got a raw 500 in the Lasernut that’s coming out and going in this. I got the Reefs 400sc servo that will go in the lasernut to replace that. I can’t see this needing a 777 for what I plan to do with it.

Thanks for all the knowledge 😊 I will do the vitavon axles next after I break these axles but for now all I've had to do is add a copper shim in the front differential spool gear housing that came out of a brake caliper hose and brake caliper for a 1:1 scale vehicle 😂 to compress all the gears closer together 😊and I added high temp wheel bearing grease and after that I did nothing to the rear diff. So now I kinda have a front over drive but still have an open differential 😉
