[iwantspeed]

It's shorter and won't block anything.

Yeah bend is what i meant when i said hammerded down. Just bend the whole bracket from the right side. if you stand by the driver side of the engine look at the bracket and bend it from its right side closer to you. If it doesnt work with pliers use a hammer and carefuly hammer it down.

I love my hartge bar. No issues whatsoever.

But, this is neat. It looks like it would've worked normally had the bar gone on first, and then the cruise line installed after. Though I could be wrong as I don't own a sparco bar.

i tried that the bend in the hard line in the cruise control wont work.

I disconnected my cruise control

thanks for sharing

Cruise control won't work with Dbilas ITB's

im not planning on dbilas independent throttle body

In mine i hammered the base with the lines a bit down and it worked and cleared the bar. I dont have cruise control though, but it indeed hit the throttle cable.

ok thanks

swap in an S50...cruise works fine with that strut bar and S50 ;-)
I bent that piece down when I was running an M20 with Sparco bar...had no issues

do have any other angles?

Sell to me, problem solved! lol Good looking bar man. That is definetly the one I'm going with.

im keeping it

^^^these guys are no help.

All i did was bend the bracket down and my CC still works.

did you bend the throttle and cruise control?

You're worried about cruise but you have no window washer

thanks for noticing

Fuck!, just get the cruise control bracket from an early model and swap'em.

FYI, cruise control is for Grandmas, I like to know I'm driving and not fall asleep on long drives.

Three easy steps will fix the problem.

Step 1: Find/make box

Step 2: Put bar in box with packaging.

Step 3: Send to me.

End result: still have cruise control, will hardly notice not having bar and will make Danny (me) happy.
