Yup... T3 Tension Rods ... FricFrac and I have mentioned them several times recently. And it looks like you have an MSA sway bar. Those aren't "bigger" brakes... just painted calipers and cross drilled / slotted rotors.

Here's mine (I bought from Wangan):

Sweet. . . . Now is there any differance between yours and mine? The 79 is still at the body shop may have to order me a set? Oh and with my set up. . . . . Is that low mid or a high grade level mod? Like I've said in previous posts who ever had it put some love in it.

79-83 all had the same front suspension.

Well... since it's the only aftermarket tc rod option, I don't really know how to classify it other than "mod".
