Default PTFB rear sway bar mounting questions
Hi - my PTFB sway bar on my 77 TA was initially installed with the drop links angled significantly by a shop. I was reinstalling it recently and tried to have the drop links more vertical but the bar is really low now.

Anyone else install this bar and have pics of it installed. Dave at PTFB says it’s ok how I have it installed but it looks odd.

That looks normal from what Ive seen of PTFB rear bars on other cars... and its pretty much the same on stock WS6 bars on my cars. Shouldnt be a concern if it doesnt touch anything while driving.

It doesn't look to be a concern while driving. Just had seen a few other non PTFB bars in pics aligning more to the middle of the diff. Perhaps they just were angling the drop links upwards more. Thanks for the response - sounds like I should just leave this be :-)
