sway bar clearance

[Dr. Dooms]

my front sway bar touches my oil pan because of the extra length of the rb

would any of the aftermarket sway bars give me more clearance?
or are they all pretty much the same shape as the stock one?

 

[TeeWhyS13]

same shape... how much clearance do you need?

 

[El Abe]

What motormounts are you using?

 

[Dr. Dooms]

r32 crossmember and stock mounts..

if it was like a half an inch forward it would probably be ok

 

[Devil Man]

they sell adapters to move the sway bars down, but i thought that was only if you used a s13 xmeber, not the r32... mmm

try getting nismo mounts they make you motor sit a little higher?

 

[homeskillet305]

try putting some washers where the sway bar bolts up to the rails of the car, maybe if you lower it it'll be in a spot where the oil pan is not touching it

hit the oilpan with a hammer

That was gonna be my suggestion. Knock the oil pan up, you have a little bit of room before it hits the pickup.

Then it shouldnt rub..

hit the oilpan with a hammer

correct. the only other way to fix this is due ur research on mount kits. but then u have togo out and spend money!

so-hammer the oil pan in. no aftermarket swaybar will give u clearence. it will probly be worse due to the thicker size
