Koni SA's and Strut Bar interference?

[Beej '86 325es]

Am I going to have an issue with adjusting Konis here?

you wont be able to do it with the knob, maybe you could use a wrench of some sort. I dont know if the dust cap will even fit on that though, doesnt look like it

[Beej '86 325es]

The old dust cap fit on there alright. That probably wasn't the best angle, here's a couple more...

I cannot use the nobs or the caps with my strut bar. I just use a pair of pliers to adjust it.

so what do you do, let crap get in the bearings? Just get a strut bar that will let the caps fit you to adjust it with the knob

Sparco bar FTW.

3 piece aluminum bar FTL.

Ok, I just didn't know what the adjuster was going to look like. I probably won't be getting my struts back from G-C for a few weeks. I guess a sparco bar is another thing to add to the list.

That sucks, I like the Racing Dynamics 3 piece design because if you need to get access to something on the motor, you don't have to pull the whole bar, just undo a bolt and pivot it up. Anyone know of any other 3 piece ones that wouldn't interfere with the konis?

Thanks!

Thanks man, heh, see my sig for expected completion... :)
But seriously, I'm shooting for June or July. I've got a few major purchases yet on the S50... i.e. Sunbelt or Schrick cam kit.
