Default Cusco sway bars

Guys I have finally fitted my Cusco bars.

On the front suspension the drop links are now catching on the coilovers!

Any one else had this problem ?

Short of warming and bending the ends of the bars i cant really see what else to do.


Any recommendations?

Interesting. I have a Cusco front bar and do not have any problem. I probably had it installed in 30 minutes or so. Pics please.

You know, I was thinking about it. Is it possible they sent you the wrong model bar? Maybe they sent you a WRX bar or something and packaged it incorrectly in the warehouse. That would explain the poor fitment. I have a Cusco sway bar, X brace, had Cusco suspension and sways on my FD RX-7, etc...I have never had a problem with the fitment or performance of their products. This is odd. I think it might just be the wrong bar. I would take it back and get another.

I have Cusco ARBs myself, but cannot remember what the front one looks like.

Does it make a difference if it goes on upside down or is it the same both ways?

Chris.

The bar has an AP1 sticker on it so id certainly be surprised if it was the wrong one.

The car is fitted with Buddy club N1 coilovers.
