After talking to a number of people outside this thread this shouldnt be a distinct problem although I'm sure that the slight change in angle due to the lowering could be part of the problem.

I could try mounting the endlink to the inside of the bar but I dont recall anything that suggested this and I would think that the thickness of the bar would make it difficult.

Okay. It seems as though the stock shock body's bracket for the brake line might be your problem... too low. I just jacked the car up and took some pics. We do have our bars on the same setting.

Do you know anyone else with the stock shocks that has the bar?

No one else in the Nashville area has this bar. I'm going to skip tomorrows AutoX and use the morning to try and trouble shoot this some more.

Man I hate missing a race... I need my fix

any updates?? I have teh comptech v1 swaybar but with the Mcmaster-carr endlinks. I seem to have the same clunk sound. I think it is the the endlinks locking out. Cannot tell thought whether the endlinks you have are the same or not.

I really think it is the endlink hitting the mount for the brake line. Im going to give the mount a little bend away from the link and see if that helps.

I'll post results.
