First off ... this you? - http://members.aol.com/pwall5/cars/2cudapag.html

Yep, that's me. :wave:

... anyway, question about that firmfeel unit - I went and check that out and I really like the rear attachment and the bar up over the axle. But I wonder about it's clearance of the exhaust up there. Do you - or for that matter, does anyone here - know how the Firm Feel bar clears in the rear?

It's always going to be a possibility. Since who knows what your muffler guy did back there. It was made to avoid the factory pipe routing. It's going to be more of an issue with the guys running 3" pipe all the way out the back though.

The Firm Feel bar was copied from the fitment of the E-body rear bars that are on all the R/T's, Rallye, 'Cudas, AAR, T/A etc... It's a little tighter in the A-bodies, but the E-body guys don't really have any problems with it.

Lastly to any and everyone ... back to the front brake calipers ... clearance for the factory disk brake calipers that is ... on my car, after jacking the car up and turning the wheels left and or right, I have to pump the brakes a few times when it's back on the ground because of the end of the bar pushing the calipers when it's up off the ground. So how do either of these - the firmfeel or this hellwig - do in this regard? NOTE: I am not about to relocate the front calipers to behind the wheel - that's not happening.

Thanks and best regards,

Turn the car all the way to see where it hits.

You could grind off a 1/4" of the non structural square pinch-off corner of the addco 1 1/8" aftermarket sway bars. This Hellwig bar pictured above doesn't look to have that.

Here's some pics of underneaf my Dart that still has the wide 66-72 sway bar setup. Note the interference and lack of turning radius when you have too long of LBJ bolt.
