Powell comes through again!
Every time I visit John, he adds a little extra effort. The products are best in the field, and proven on the road and track. Best bang for your buck, bar none!
I now have PRS YYZ V1 springs and TC struts/shocks, John's two bolt front sway bar clamp conversion, Spherical CAB's, and HardCore rear bar.
Next on my list are the UnderCar Rails.

Early model Cobalts had two bolt front sway bar clamps. Then GM cheaped out, and developed a single bolt clamp with a tab that slides into a slot on the opposite side. These can loosen up if subjected to repeated hard loads. My 08 2.4 had the single bolt version.
John has a supply of new the two bolt clamps and bushings. (This means drilling a hole in the cradle for the second bolt.) Plus he has developed a clamshell bolt on swaybar bracket that is bolted onto the sway bar and positioned against the bushing. This prevents the sway bar from "walking" sideways (lateral movement) under repeated load. ie if you track your car (clockwise), you are going to have at least twice as many right turns over left turns.
The stock sway bar just has a plastic ring on it to prevent lateral movement. The plastic rings will give way themselves, so John developed the clamshell lock.
