went to install this bumper i got for an amazing deal from a member! Thought i was in the clear till I lined it up and The sway bar is in the way of the brackets!!!! What can I do???

I took a ton of pics but my internet is too slow!- I can text them to anyone! Or if someone wants to help a brother out my uploading them if I send them the pics that would be a huggeee favor!!!

Thanks JK-forum!!!

 

Sounds like a guestion for teraflex

 

 

Alright-my idea is to grind down each side of bumper bracket to fit... do as evenly as possible on both sides- get longer bolts....

someone please give me a better idea

 

Got pics up!

Dont know why my location came up... kinda creepy... but ohhh well come over if you can help! haha


Just bumping this! any input is VERY appreciated!!!!

 

You could (or have someone) cut off the plate off the end of the square tube, knock a 1/4" or what ever the thickness of the sway bar mount material is off the square tubing and then re weld them on. Either way cutting is gonna be involved if you want those two to play properly....

 

It looks like longer bolts and a new end bracket might be in order. I'm currious though because I have the same swaybar disco and I'm looking to put a new bumper on in the near future.

 

that bar is the rear support for the winch. i wouldn't modify it without making sure that you still have a tie-in to the frame there. not sure if you can get away with lopping off the higher bolts and half the brackets for the swaybar, though. personally, i'd rather cut that an the bumper's winch mount.

its either that or get a new bumper.

 

Not gonna weld the bumper on... This is a temp one im just putting on till I eventually get a new one.

How am I going to know if a bumper is going to work with this sway bar? I looked at both teraflex and quadratec websites and neither mentioned anything about not fitting with one another.

 

No one else has run into this problem?
