HI team I just installed my 3' Downpipe but I think thet lower sway bar or somthingwas in the way. I removed it, but I am so worried that it is a critical part of the car. Here are pics of my and my roomate trying to install the downpipe and the bars being in the way. ONly one was removed, the other had to be in order to get it to fit. IS there another after market part, or did I install the downpipe wrong.



that is as far is I could get the bar to get to where it needed to be.





Thats not me that is my roomate . BUT that is the downpipe in the way. I dont think the heat wrap was thick enough to be the culprit, but if anyone knows please help.....I am so worried right now....BUT THE CAR HAULS ars.....

 

those are the braces to keep the chasis more stable under hard acceleration

 

You need to put spacers in it so the downpipe can clear especially if you have heat wrap on the downpipe take care bud

 

So it os ok to have spacers, it will not harm handling? Currently it is off the car, is it safe? I really appreciat the input too guys. Also would you recommmond anything.

 

Tie bars, just go to home depot and get some spacers, and maybe some longer bolts. The bolt size are Metric, M1.25, I think. Correct me if I'm wrong, please.

 

Man you guys are great...I swear without EVOM I would be spending some cash...I wish I could by you a Beer or Somthing....I wll Check it today and see what I can Find.

 

the same thing happened to me when i installed mine,i just put two washers in each bolt location to space it from the chassis-then when my suspension was getting done by RRE he just took this tool that punched the tie bar down to clear

 

if that is the ultimate racing dp you don't need to put spacers

 

or you could just hang out with us TO guys and all your troubles would be solved

but NOOOOOOO petes too cool for us.

 

PM toke....

 

i could go for a beer right now..

 

Yeah the bolts are at home depot. You need them to be about 20mm longer. I also recommend buying thick nuts instead of using a lot of spacers. Its cheaper and easier.

 

Thanks Deca....thats sounds like a good idea.....I think I will.

 

Did you heatwrap that yourself? How'd you do that?
