This is suppose to be a universal kit for all the urqs.  It is also suppose
to come with all the hardware needed to install it -- none of the early
stuff is used.  Bushings are polyurathane (sp?).

I don't remember exactly what the stock front and rear are, but 25mm and
15mm come to mind.  There are a few of these kits on a few cars I have seen
over the years.  I did not take the time to look at Craig Hillis' car that
has these bars.  Maybe I'll get a chance to at the 8/14 track day.
