Viking rear coilovers + BMR Xtreme rear sway bar Hello,
I currently have a BMR Xtreme rear sway bar, which I like and do not want to replace. I'm looking to purchase Viking shocks and springs this weekend, and prefer to get coilovers in the rear for better ride height control. I'm a little concerned about the available clearance with the two pieces of suspension, especially since the sway bar tends to move a bit (which is a little aggravating since I had the previous version on my last car and it never moved).
Does anyone actually have this exact combo with success and no clearance issues? Which company did you get the rear coilovers from (BMR, UMI, Midwest). I see they all have their nuances.
Thanks!

I can only speak for our kit.
It will clear with our 22mm rear sway bar, UMI drag bar and the factory rear end. We have also confirmed this kit to work on Moser Engineering and Strange brand rear ends. We include 3/16” shims in case they are needed for any clearance issues.
Our current sale will run into monday.
If you need any info feel free to give us a call at the shop on monday.
