Default Minor Suspension problem

I have the Tein SS-P and the Hotchkis Front sway Bar instaled and on full lock (left and right) of the steering wheel, the tiebars are hitting the sway bar.

Is there any way to fix this?

Does anyone know where I can get custom shortened endlinks?

Thanks for the help.

everyone has that issue with that setup, fact of life unless someone does a redesign.

Just don't turn full lock, it's not good for your pump anyways.

a search would've found your answer as well.

Default custon designed adjustable endlinks

i have the tein ss-p's with front and rear hotchkis sway bars, and greddy strut tower bars front and rear. i was having the issue with my front sway bar hitting my tie rod, then a guy i know cut the endlinks, it took care of that problem,but he cut them too short. the only problem is that it is hitting something else on top of the sway bar. only when i hit bumps in the road. so i decided to make some instead, so i made some calls , asked some friends and next thing you know i can get the parts. and it is guaranteed to work.



i am making custom adjustable endlinks for the tein ss-p coilover setup, i am using all parts that are used for sprint cars so they are strong. i am using stainless steel, they can be done with iodized aluminum in 3 different color, i will be finishing up the endlinks hopefully on friday, hopefully the rest of my parts will be in.

when i am done i will post pictures of the product and let you know if they work well.

if everything goes well i will be taking orders for the adjustble endlinks.
i know how everyone feels so i am going to help everyone i can

i will be posting soon, e-mail me if you have any questions.

it's because Tein relocated something...i forget what exactly.

No matter what, you will pretty much always have that issue unless you go as far as fullforcescion and modify the suspension further.

Hotchkis will not redesign the bar simply b/c it's based off STOCK....not some other suspension set up. The R&D would not be worth the pay off.
