Hi
You can get a clip on bar for the front, it runs parallel to factory bar, not ideal. The best one to buy is a full replacement one from Whiteline,
they also incorporates adjustable caster, useful if you've lowered your car or want to tune your suspension.
Start off with a rear bar 1st, then go front if you need it.

i used to have 2 setup on the front of my super years ago and im going to go that way again with my current super.
now this is from memory so may not be correct but, we used the ends off of old shock absorbers, welded together and used new bushes from pedders,
these sat on the outer ends to support it. pretty sure we used the original mounts under the mounts which are there now, but spaced with longer
bolts.
works very well in my opinion and i was using this with a rear sway bar too. hope this helps
