I don't recall the brand on the control arms as I bought them 20 years ago. The gold colored arm is the standard MII bottom arm triangulation link, it's just an after-market aluminum one instead of steel. Less un-sprung weight.

Here's a couple more pics, better as taken with natural light and at normal ride height.





Here's pics of the cross bar:







I'm not a suspension expert, but my opinion is that I benefit from the sway bars on my CR Cobra. I've got them on front and rear. The car stays very flat in turns. I'm not sure how much I benefit but I certainly wouldn't remove them if they're already installed. My 2 cents, take it for what it's worth.
