68 Cuda fastback suspension rebuild...
Well, I installed my Hellwig sway bar again, and here are some pics that shows where I'm having interference problems. It seems to me that the bar is a little too long, and it also interferes with the lower control arms...
These two pics show where the sway bar end links interfere with the strut rod...which I don't know why they do..
Here at full lock, tire comes in contact with the middl3e of sway bar. I put a piece of tape where I think it should have a bend.
same for the other side
and here is another shot where the end links hit the strut rods...
I think I might cut a little corner off the lower control arm so the end of the sway bar doesn't hit it...
I don't know why I'm having all these damn problems...Any ideas? I think I might just be forced to run the '73 style k member, and the LCA's with sway bar tabs mounted in the middle...the sway bar is narrower and would mount inside the strut rods, instead of outside of them...But hell I don't know...I'm thinking who the heck needs a stupid sway bar...loosing alot of interest in this car...anyone wanna buy it?
