racin time has an issue with sway bar movement - I have given him a simple solution. you can give him the more complex solution and he can make a decision which route he goes.
Sorry you took it so bad, mine is also a simple solution. Such are the dangers of "internet conversations" I guess.

Sorry.

It's been several months ago that I solve the problem. Here's a picture showing the fix. This allows room for the collars with out having to modify the cradle.

The parts consist of a pair of split shaft collars that match the sway bar diameter. The rest is made from tubing that is welded to the collars and then cut in half to match the split collars. My bar had about 2" of straight area on the inside of mounting area which was enough area for the collars to clear the cradle. To protect the mounting bushings from the tubing that will be pushing against them, purchase a couple of machine washers that will fit the bar diameter loosely. Cut each washer one time and carefully spread the washer apart to slip it around the bar and bent it back to it's original shape.
