Good call Steve. Someone in another thread pointed out that Aircooled.net has them listed on their website.


Finally got the rally car finished for ice racing and the bug back into the garage. Here's the shots of the sway bar interference. I just zip-tied the sway bar on...but the problem is pretty clear.

Here's the stock size, for comparison...


And with the new wheels on, which are obviously just a bit wider


Once the car is on the ground and the suspension compressed, the sway bar is right in the middle of the rim lip.


Above is the whiteline sway bar sold by Aircooled.net which would solve all my problems, but there's a few things I'm not stoked on. The strut nut is already single-shear (not ideal, and the sway bar will add more load to it. Might be my only choice though.
