Front sway bar location.
 

I have a 16 JK 2 door I picked up almost two years ago. It had a spacer lift and some Bilstein 5100’s shocks, stock springs and control arms.

After some advice from the forum and doing some research, I went with the MC 2.5 Game Changer with Rocksport shocks and all the goodies last summer. The kit was installed by a local MC dealer/installer. World of ride difference.

I was looking around under the Jeep and noticed something that looked odd. The sway bar is at a pretty steep angle with the new MC links that came with the kit. You can also see where the sway bar makes light contact with the frame cross stiffener. It has only been driven on the street sense the lift was installed.

Curious if this is correct?

Thanks for the input.

People may suggest other solutions, but there is a simple fix.
Cut down the vertical struts, re-thread, and you're done.

Are those plastic bungs in that x-member tube? If so do nothing just leave as is or what SFNM16JK says as the bar looks a little too high at the drop link ends. Nice suspension components - MC!

yup, shorten links as short as possible. You have at least half an inch there it looks like. That might be enough. You do want that sway bar angled up a couple degrees, but currently that is a bit extreme.

Thanks for the reply's Gents.

I did verify they are the MC 12" links and not the 14". I will get them modified in the next week or so and post a pic or two.

Thanks again folks,
