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.

Finally came to the realization that the drop links on mine are incorrect and way too short. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
This can be seen from the picture sent by wysri9 here. At the time this photo was posted I was more concerned with the slider arm and all the extra space to the cotter pin to digest this now obvious fact. It wasn't until I tried to reassemble that things just did not make sense. Spoke with Jason at Paragon Products in Corpus Christie TX and he confirmed it. The drop link should be 6 7/8" long and mine is only 4 7/8' long. Explains a lot. The front suspension was so pre-loaded and the A arms actually hung on the sway bar arms as opposed to the struts. Now I understand why it was so hard to get it apart. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) A full 2" too short? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Keep in mind I barely have this thing on the road, still sorting out the bugs and break the engine in, so very few miles yet to guage anything. Parts on order. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/white914.jpg) |
