Dumb Question on a 2003 IRS Sway Bar Link
Hey guys, dumb question here.
I'm swapping an IRS from a 2003 Cobra into my 2000 Mustang. While I was putting it in I decided I'd upgrade the suspension, too. I installed Full Tilt Boogie Racing's bushing kit all the way around, Installed a Coilover Kit From Maximum Motorsports, and Installed an Eibach Sway Bar in the rear. Everything is, so the only thing left to do is adjust the height of the suspension and install the adjustable sway bar links from maximum motorsports so there's no preload.
Here's the trouble. The swaybars come threaded to stock length. When connected, The control arms only travel about halfway up before the links contact the half shafts. I think if I extend them to their max recommended length that they will clear the halfshaft throughout the whole range of travel. My question is do you normally have to get extended sway bar links when you have lowered performance suspension on the IRS to clear the shafts?
