excuse the crappy cell phone pics. This is why I was asking about the sway bar mounting. If you note on my car the "box" the goes in the frame for the front spring to mount to is pretty wide and sticks away from the frame a bit. Thats the part I was worrying about hitting the vertical bar that connects from the sway bar end to the inside of the frame rail. I guess I'll have to get creative and make something to move it closer towards the center of the car...

And I didn't notice until I was almost done, the case vent on the 8.25 is in the way of the U-Bolts when you do the relocation. No biggie I just took my 4" cutter and cut off about 3.5 inches, chiseled the end of the vent off of the axle tube and re welded it closer towards the center. Had to make more brake line tabs as the factory one is now in between the U-Bolts and that ain't happening!
