Racing Beat Rear Sway Bar Fouling on the Strut
Racing Beat Rear Sway Bar Fouling on the Strut
Hi all,
I am trying to install my RB rear anti sway bar and the end which connects to the sway link is fouling with the base of my Tein strut?
I might add that my car is right hand drive and currently sitting on jack stands.
Cheers Elliot.

Don't know what fouling means but will take a guess that you mean one side isn't allowing you to connect to the link?
I'm guessing your car has longer than normal struts possibly stock with the spring not fully compressed (top screw on the hat all the way screwed in)
Be sure the screws are all the way in (hat/pillow top all the way down) if they both are then simply place a jack under the tire and lift that link up to meet the sway bar.

If you mean the end of the bar past the bolt holes, mine was squared-off at the ends, with extra metal that didn't need to be there. After grinding down the ends to a rounded profile, no more rubbing. If you do this, remember to prime & paint the steel when you're done.
