Post subject: SwayBar Adjustable Linkage Mods. |
 |
|
Hi,
This is a modification for the Blox Adjustable Swaybar Linkage for anyone wanting to use this on there car.
When using these swaybar linkage you will have to make yourself spacers for them to fit right between the Lower control arms and the swaybar. The spacer between the liknage and the swaybar is using a 7/8" steel hollow spacer and the spacer between the lower control arm and linkage is using 5/8" steel hollow spacer, this helps keeps the swaybar link in the right position. You will see in the photos i have added all new Energy Suspension bushings onto the Rear Trailing Arms and also upgraded to Adjustable rear Toe Arms and rear Adjustable camber kit and Swaybar bushings with the Tie Bar added to match the Lower control arms. Hope this was a helpfull tip for guy's wanting to use Adjustable Swaybar linkage. enjoy.
Ps: I forgot to mention that I have use heat shrink over the steel spacers to make it look fairly good under the car.

Thanks for the good tip there, I had other stands also but was remove because the car is finish and was in the process of taking it down then decide to take pictures first. The car is driving on the road right now and feels great...
Thanks for the tip anyway. |

Thanks for the comments, I took a while but its done now, The car rides like new with no noise and handles really good, around corners she's like glued to the road. The ride is very smooth and comfortable no bounce at all and with the adjustable sway bar links the car dont lean to one side when turning corners, The suspension was tune and balanced out when alighnment was done. all the parts under the car is all adjustable for tunning and ride comfort. |

KYB's struts and Megan springs, rides really good almost like a new car. as for handling its like much better than my skunk2 springs and Koni struts combo. around corners islike glue onto the road and for lunching in drag racing on the trac is really good, not much lift of the front and the rear don't really dip to much, which is good for launching. The main thing is the wife don't complain like she did in the past when I had the Koni struts with the skunk2 springs combo, she taught she was in a new car...lol.... |
