As far as i've been able to find, a/m ones are rare to find, since most of them are usually one off customs, since the GS wasnt' built to track, so stock is usually good for almost all purposes

You can fit the rear off a mkiv supra. You need to use the rear subframe mounts from the supra to get it to work.

The MKIV rear sway upgrade is the BEST suspension modification for the sloppy 1st gen GS. The front sway bar fits also with the MKIV end links as well.

Believe he meant the rear end link mounts, may be wrong though. Either way I have a set of MKIV bars coming with end links.

Front supra bar will not fit. I've already confirmed this. Since we have the different K member it won't fit.

So in order to use the supra rear sway bar we need the supra endlinks or the subframe mounts?
