Default Who makes Sway Bars

I'm looking to fabricate a rear Sway Bar set up. My car has a C4 Suspension in a C3. I'm looking to use a Splined style Bar. None of the suspension Vendors Bars will work for my application. Since the Vendors don't make the Bars them selves, who makes them for them ?
All I need is a straight Bar made to Length and Diameter, I will take care of the rest. What I want is probably already available for some other application. But who would have a catalog with Length and Diameters ?

Big2Bird said "Try Coleman racing." I think they made the splined bar that is on my RX-7 that was marketed through Racing
Beat.

Thanx for the heads up. I now have lots to work with. I wish there was a 3/4" hollow bar available.
