Front sway bar
OK I appreciate the pics of the traction bar you guys helped with. Now I will be adding a front sway bar. My project has DJM drop beams in the front. Anyone have some pics showing a mounted front sway bar. The brackets that came with it are a bit confusing. The drivers side I beam sits further back. Trying to figure out if the kit should have included a bracket with a spacer so everything lines up straight.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Sorry, I don't have any pictures but the brakcet for my sway bar goes over the Ibeam and radious arm at the coil spring lower perch. The bracket should have a pin on one end that fits into the notch on the radious arm, the notch will be on the top of the one radious arm and the bottom of the other. To get it in place you will need to remove the nut holding the coil spring to the lower perch and one of the connecting points for the shock to drop the I beam down and pull the coil. Next remove the lower perch and then remove the nut that the perch covered that is attached to the bolt holding the radious arm to the Ibeam. Pull the bolt out and put the bracket in place and then reassemble in reverse order. My brackets seem to be identical so the pin orients it correctly. I have not checked my sway bar, but it would make sense that it has one side longer to accomidate for the offset of the Ibeams.
Hope this helps,
Jeff
