Default Anyone else's BMR Extreme Sway Bar sit on the rearend....

Mine actually sits touching the rearend, is that a bad thing? I tried moving it all different ways, but can not get it to sit off the rearend. To get it off the rear I would have to pivot it more downwards to sit under the rear cover, but I can't cuz I already have one of the endlinks as short as it will go and that's not short enough if I have it sittin under the rear cover. Is it ok that it's touching a little, or do I need to figure out a way to get it off (I was thinking spacers under the mounting point for the bar to the rear mounting plates should bring it down some and keep it off the rear)? Thanks for any help guys!

The rear swaybar brackets MUST be welded to the rear.

my stock swaybar toched my rear end girtle when i switched to my 12bolt, was a frickin pain, every time i tired to turn it would rub against the screws and make a terible clunking sound, took me a while to figure out exactly what it was, thought it was the spool or driveshaft hitting something at first.
fixed it by putting my sphon swaybar in.
i would make sure it clears it otherwise it will probably break something.

It sounds like you might have the swaybar on upside down (common mistake). If you are still having problems give me a call and I'll be more then happy to help out
