Front sway bar alternatives
I have a truck manifold turbo kit, which appears like it will not clear the front sway bar. Is there any options here? Like spacing the sway bar down, or up. Maybe adding a tubular k member to stiffen up the front a bit. Im kind of out of options at the moment. Id rather not cut up the pipe and get it rewelded since that is big $

Hello
To help save some $ you could always just remove the front sway bar. But the downfall to that is you will loose your handling (will be effected as well with longer or shorter end links). And it will have a different ride quality in general. I just figured I would toss that out there for you. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Thanks

Ya I thought about that but I think I figured out a way to keep the sway bar. I just need to cut the pipe a bit and re-angle it up and over the sway.
Are aftermarket sway bars the same design as the stock ones? I noticed that most of them are just thicker.

Losing the sway bar? I don't think there is an alternative..how much would it be to run your setup a little different in that on one spot? maybe you can get a pipe with a different bend in it..and keep the bar..
