sway bar, disk brake Interference-1965 barracuda

[cudaboy1965]

My car has front disk brakes from a later model MOPAR.
The sway bar contacts the inside of the brake calipers when the wheels are turned. This occurs before wheels reach full lock.

I can solve with shorter sway bar links. Will this work???

Swap the spindles from left side to right side - placing the calipers to the back.... ??

Its really,really,hard to see from here.

Short links will work just fine. We ran them on both of my sons' cars. I will probably do the same on my Barracuda.

I swapped the spindles side to side on my Barracuda

I got original swaybar and 67 disks. Never even checked mine at full lock. Should be easy as its on stands with no inners or wheels right now.

The original fix is/was to move the spindles and calipers left to right. Slightly longer fluid hoses are required. Some owners have used shorter end links and a few have assembled the link beneath the lower arm instead of above. That puts a very small/weak attachment too close to the road hazards in my opinion. Anyway... pics of all these options are scattered through threads here.

Thanks everyone!!!
I took a look and indeed switching spindles left to right will solve the issue. The quick easy fix was to install shorter sway bar links. Took for a test ride. Seems fine.
