Spohn Drag Bar and DA Shocks
What are you guys doing to make the DA shocks fit? My drag bar clears my QA1 single adjustable shocks with the adjuster turned towards the wheel. It won't clear the DA's due to the larger shock cylinder. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have madman shock relocation kit on order. My understanding is this will only turn the shock so the adjusters are facing forward and won't give me any additional clearance with the shock and drag bar.

It looks like this is a known issue as I can see that the Spohn bar comes from the factory with grind marks in the area of the shock mount.
One more bend on each side, like the BMR bar has, would have been nice.
But I see that the Spohn bar is advertised as "1 5/16" solid heat treated spring grade 4140 chrome moly sway bar". I figure I can do a little grinding on each side of the bar so that it comfortably clears the shock and shock mount.

It worked to solve my issues. I had to go 1/4" shorter on the bolt that comes with the relocation brackets so they wouldn't hit my LCA's when moved over.
