Default Rear sway bar + Strange's Dana-60???

I was told by Strange Engineering that the stock style sway bar would clear the standard diff cover that comes on the S60 rear-end, but if you upgraded to the "black powder coated cover" or the "support cover", the sway bar would not clear and would need to be relocated.

I thought somewhere I had seen someone running a stock sway bar with out problems. So my questions are....

1. Does anyone have fitment problems with the stock sway bar and the upgraded diff covers?

2. If you had to buy relocation brackets, who did you get them from? Also, how did they fit?

3. Did you run into any other problems when installing this rear-end?



I plan on installing my S60 rear-end next week, and I would like to have all the angles covered before I start turning wrenches and busting knuckles!

Thanks guys
Shea

I had a stocker bolt right up with the chrome-steel cover with no problem..I then upgraded to the black powercoated cover with the Eibach Drag bar..Had to modify the metal spacers on the endlinks, and everything cleared..No problems.
