Classic Roadsters sway bar end links
 
Don, it seems like I made a mistake when installing the front sway bar.
I used stock MustangII end links, as a result the sway bar is now angled down at the ends and gets very close to the tie rods.

I think I need longer end links to get the sway bar ends up. Do I need parts from a donor car or are these end links made by Classic Roadsters?


Thanks,


Simon

Simon, from the picture it looks like the sway bar is mounted upside down. This would also explain why you have no suspension movement. If you look at the bar I bet it's bottoming out on the frame. Should make a world of difference since the front is probably solid now.

This might explain things :eek:

I'll check this as soon as possible.


However I remember the original end links were longer than the stock MustangII parts.

The links look close to the right length. If they are not I have new end link kits. The sway bar is probably holding the front end up so that may take care of your spring problem also.
