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) You can weigh in here on go to my thread page 31 http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=261197 Thanks!

The U-bolts sure sounds like a bad idea. I used the 914ltd.com sway bar mounting brackets, they are very nice.
I found the sway-bar bangs back and forth with any slop. The upper links are rigid with plastic bushings that bind as the suspension goes up and down causing the sway bar to slam back and forth horizontally. I replaced the upper links with heim joints and it works smooth. You need to be mindful when setting up the alignment because of the extra freedom of movement. I only have 20 miles on this setup so time will tell.    |
