It.......
Don't know if anyone has been following the swaybar thread in Suspensions, but I've been posting some there.
I got a swaybar from Victory Performance off ebay. Was one of those things where they had a "buy it now", with NO reserve and a low opening bid. They also were giving free shipping! So I bid and got the kit for $31.00!!!!!
It showed up early this week, and I tried to install it. Well it didn't fit very well. Turns out it's an ADDCO bar #150. The biggest problem is a "kick" to the outside which makes the bar about 3" to wide.
I dropped V.P. an email and they told me to call ADDCO. I did, and John was great. It seems this "minor issue" isn't unknown to them. Bottom line is ADDCO is sending me another bar, without the kick in it. So when it arrives next week, I'll reinstall it.
I also ordered me a 37 tooth speedo gear to try to get it close. Damn thing had a 42 tooth in it! At any rate, it cost me $7 and change at the dealership. The original part number has been superseded as you might expect. The goofy thing is the original had the last two digits of the part number on it, which was also the tooth count. They still have the last two digits on them, but they don't match the tooth count any more.
So a bit of ****. These are pics of the "kicked" ADDCO bar installed, and a pic they sent me of one installed without the "kick"
