Toby, A few things you might want to think about. By adding stiffeners to the lower control arm and basically triangulating it, you create a ridge assembly which now pivots around the centerline of the inner pivot bolt. The outer / balljoint end of this arm will now only move up and down in relation to the inner pivot bolt. If you look at the original setup on the D you will see the outer end of the lower control arm is held and guided buy the sway bar. Now as the suspension moves up and down the sway bar pivots around its front connection to the front crush tube. This means the other end which is attached to the lower control arm actually swings thru an arc, so as the suspension moves up and down the outer / balljoint end on the lower control arm not only goes up and down but it actually moves front and backwards thru the arc of the sway bar. When you triangulate the lower control arm (I've actually made a set before by taking an upper arm and cutting the center balljoint section out and then welding it to the sides of a lower arm) you create a binding problem between the triangulated lower control arm, which now only wants to move up and down, and the sway bar connection, which wants to move front and back. The rubber bushings will compensate for some of this, but you still have suspension parts in a bind. Poly bushings make this binding condition worse because of less flexibility. This is what sway bar "links" on other applications eliminate, the binding. If you go with the triangulated lower arm setup, you should think about a different sway bar setup also.
