Swaybar mount spacers

07-13-2010, 05:55 PM

Any one have any idea how much effect using swaybar mount spacers to provide clearance for 24v headers has on the handling of the car? Obviously it is changing the preload on the swaybar but is it increasing or decreasing it?

I have yet to auto-x the car since the swap, or even drive it anywhere but to the exhaust shop actually.

are you spacing both mounts evenly? Why would it preload?

The angle of the 'torque arm' would change, but shouldn't be by much. If you are worried about preloading, you can always get adjustable links.
