Default LCA's installed.

But, has anyone else done this before?

I had to reverse the nut brackets on my sway bar to make it fit... so the sway bar itself is on the inside of one LCA, and the outside of another.. did i miss something here?

Also, the "e-brake line / ABS sensor" bracket will not reattach to the sway bar, should i remove them (as I am changing my rear calipers here soon anyway) or find someway to juryrig them onto the LCA. Thanks

On the plus side, my stock bushings were more than shot, and now that annoying groaning noise is GONE!!!


(btw they are GMS LCAs, UCA's go in on tuesday!!)

Same problem, they don't have any holes to re-attach too. Icut thosebrackets off and tie wrapped lines to LCA. Works fine and keeps it further away from tires as mine have rubbed e-brake line

I just cut off the "L" shape on top of the ABS sensor holder so it would sit flush with the LCA and took the clips off the sway bar and used nuts and washers.
