can I do this and how

I have read that at full lock the tires may rub the sway bar on the earlier style I am not sure if this is true but it does appear that there would be more clearance with the later style. I would also point out that the mounting points (Bushed) seem to be farther out on the bar with the later K member I think this gives a bit better leverage along with the shorter length after the bend in the bar.
