Anybody Have This 22mm Weltmeister Front Sway Bar?, Don't understand what keeps it centered Options

This sway bar here



My driver side looks like this



And my passenger side looks like this



Seems to be some room on either side of the bushing cup totaling abut 1.75 in. for the bar to wander off to one side as mine did. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I used to have that Weltmeister bar. The bushing should look the same on both sides with about an 1/8” sticking out on both sides. You center the bar with the arms flush to the bushing on both sides. They do have a tendency to move side to side. Either dump the whole thing and buy a tarret bar or buy some clamps on the inside from McMaster Carr.

Thanks Steve. What I was saying is there seems to be a lot more room to be able to have the arms flush up to the bushings if I can have one bushing hanging out that far currently.

Probably will try to run it for a while with some spacers of some sort between the bushing and the arms. Was hoping to not have to pull the tank for the millionth time to add clamps but it may come to that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Anybody else have one of these and their experience with it?
