I moved the brackets up on the k member like you're saying and when I did the bushings were pretty twisted and I didn't like how the sway bar was not neutral. If my k member was out of the car i would of played around with it more and welded it. My k is powder coated already and I didn't feel like mig welding it on and having the mess. My car isn't going to be tracked or auto x'd, and I think the chassis isnt stiff enough on my car (just subframe connectors) to really notice the slight difference in variation to how the mounts are 1.5" inbound with my intended use of the car.
