Front suspension...

Hi guys,
 I have finally got around to finishing the front of my Sierra. I have installed CompBrake adjustable TCA's and CompBrake adjustable compression struts. I have taken out the roll bar to use the mounting points for the compression struts. My question is... What happens with the roll bar now? If I leave it out, other than using massive pound springs to compensate, is there a roll bar "kit" that I can use with the compression struts?
Cheers guys,

    Either a kit from Touring Car Spares, David Godfrey (Vic can hook you up) or that MK Billet fella from Passionford.
     
    Compbrake have a solution?

    CompBrake dont have anything on the website mate. I saw some pics of Vic's awesome front end set up which runs a Julien Godfrey blade front bar with drop links. That may be a good option in the future.
    I must admit, the dude that did my wheel alignment did give me one of those "You are mad for not running a front bar!!" looks. But after coming home and looking into it a bit more, it seems people are more than happy with the difference after installing just the compression stuts. The car does run AVO coilovers with 400lb front springs so I'm now thinking it will be ok...
    Stay tuned!
