Thread: Addco sway bar clearance

    Addco sway bar clearance

    I was planning on installing OGTS intermediate front spring which will lower the front about 3/4 to 1 inch. Reading the posts indicates the Addco front sway bar doesn't like having a lowered front end. Has anyone tried the OGTS intermediate spring and the Addco front sway bars? Any problems, suggestions or foresee any proplems? It's not lowering it much but how much is too much.

    Thanks for your input.

    Mine is lowered very radically with shackles. To get the Adco sway bar in I made some custom brackets to attach it to the frame.
    We do have an OGTS 2" lowering spring (thanks Gil for the great service as usual) which we will be installing soon, maybe, well before the car ever runs again at least. First we have to get the new limited sportsman car done, then the GT can go on the jig for a complete re-do of the front suspension. The present shackles are so long that they are only two inches off the pavement, this isn't quite legal. Hoping the new spring will solve this with shorter shackles, but we have to start over with getting spring rate right. When we get the GT dug out of the snow and on the jig, I could put up a photo of the sway bar mounts, but you'll have to be patient. It could be a month or more away.
