You know they've had urethane bushings with grease fittings out for some time now? I agree, had bad experience with using them in the past when you had to disassemble to re-lubricate - but with a grease fitting I think that era is over. These also have grease channels inside to retain the grease.
FWIW, you could have a custom made sway bar made by a couple different companies - could make something near identical to the one shown in the pics. http://www.sanerperffab.com/ Jeff |

Thanks Jeff,yeah i saw those grease fittings on some site recently but im still not 100% convinced,i had another look at Sandeeps suspension tech article and i might try Whiteline bars and welded brackets + some rose jointed linkages like Steve C has,its just that basically im lazy and ide rather put together an INTERNET suspension with some beautiful german engineering that only requires a bit of welding
anyway thanks guys,Mick.

I agree -- the whiteline front adjustable sway bar can be a pain to install on a ball joint. I did it like Sandeep at first, but found out that the shock brackets were upside down (bracket should be "L" vs upside down L). It works upside down as shown in Sandeeps tech article, but ground clearance is reduced. To get it right side up, the bracket needs to be clearanced to prevent rubbing on the shock which can loosen the shock nut.
Another problem I had was that my bar rotated on the beam with a hard corner, causing some fender lip rubbing. John at aircooled.net said he had seen the U bolts welded to the beam to prevent this. I took the suggestion and it's rock solid now. No issues with the new slotted urethane bushings from Whiteline, but I don't have a lot of miles on it yet either. Instructions on how I did my install are here. |

He deals with a lot of overseas customers so I guess communication shouldn`t be a prob. Remember the time difference when you call .
