Guys my sway bar end links are rubbing against my lower control arms on just one side. Do I just tighten that side to fix it?

Sway bar should be above the control arm, that end link needs to be like 3” shorter, I presume on both sides.

You could get a high-misalignment endlinks, Hotchkis makes some good ones

Hotchkis front swaybar end links https://www.hotchkis.net/product/hot...d=21598&sm=268 part no 25445F at Summit Racing or elsewhere

Use RSX endlinks and relocate to LCA. Prevents any binding as you move through steering angle.

that also works, but requires drilling the LCA. Do you have a pic of your setup?

My lower control arms are already pretty fucked and I like the relocation idea I'll probably do that if tightening my current ones to the max doesn't work.

So what's the deal with the Megan Inners and swaybar endlinks binding? Do they hit the strut body with the added angle? I'm thinking of running these with a stock suspension and about -3 degrees camber in the front, will it exaggerate the issue? Will an adjustable endlinks help?
