swaybar options mazda sp20

sikwitit · 13-09-2013, 04:02 PM

I need help asap im really frustrated and about to blow the piece of **** up.
ok rant over so my problem is I installed the ksport air suspension and its low but not low enough after spending a long day of adjusting I couldn't get it to go any lower so after lots of experimenting I have found out I need the aac lateral link kit in the rear cause the rubbers in the hard race lateral link kit wont flex enough to let it sit lower and the swaybar is hitting on the rear jacking point. and on the front I have the same problem the swaybar is hitting on the subframe.
so my question is what options for front and rear swaybars that are slightly different in there design to clear everything when slammed.

currently have a whiteline rear swaybar and adjustable swaybar links front and rear.

why not get longer swaybar endlinks to rotate the swaybar further back and stop it from hitting the subframe????????

again, get longer links. you aint the first person to have this problem. this is a common lowering problem for the bj/kh/kq.

if I get any longer they will be sitting on the lateral links in the rear and lower control arm in the front right now I have about 1mm gap b4 they hit

you are gonna need to provide photos. nothing you are typing is making sense. i try to visulize what you have typed, but just doesn't compute in my brain.

Or just don't go any lower.... problem solved.

^ agreed. Just take the swaybar off lol. If your driving with your car a bees dick away from the ground I think handling is the least of your problems.

I would take them off but I drive 45 to work and 45 back home.
