Thats all I could find off hand.  Downey used to make/sell some really nice progressive ones, but they are now closed.

I have somewhat of a budget. I will give them a call and see what the news is. (Wished Downey was still around)

If memory serves, downey's torsion bars were just re-labeled swayaways anyway.  Check on ebay, I've seen some of both go cheap.
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
