Sway Bar Mounting Posts

Post by FireKraka »

Guys can anybody give me the length of the sway bar mounting posts that go from the end of the sway bar to the lower HR wishbone.

I picked up a set of chrome ones but when I fitted them my sway bar is too far forward and I can't get the sway bar mounts to fit to the subchassis.

Appreciate any help.

I remember having this problem. I tried the EK bar followed by 25mm hr bar. In the end I got a 25mm bar made from my measurements to suit lowered hr front in EK. Cost under $100 back in the day and still works a treat. Industrial springs in Adelaide who did it have since shut up shop.

I did a similiar thing years ago when I had my FC in Sydney, went to the local Pedders I think it was in Kograh and they made me one but I was told that the FB/EK one fits ????????????

Yes, the FB-EK one fits, but you need to turn it upside-down, I seem to remember. The distance between the sway bar mounting holes on the HR front suspension is greater than the equivalent distance on a king-pin front.
