Is the way bar lower to the ground because it was designed to fit multiple differentials? Or is it more that it's a personal preference?
You have to buy the 4 bushings for your axle, as flimsy as my factory cross member was that my upper arms attached to I am glad that it came with the braces , there is going to be extra stress when the sway bar makes both sides try to swing parallel and it is going to help for that. I'm now thinking that even though the lower swing arms appear they can only be mounted on way that they are flipped which moved the sway bar down so the low sway bar may be self induced!!!! I will be trying to flip them and see what that does in next few days, Smitty
