Default Z06 Sway Bar Install

Hi Guys...I painted my new Z06 sway bar red then installed with new metal end links instead of the sock crumby plastic ones......it originally had marks on it for where the bushings go......I should have marked them but instead measured and lost the measurements...so I just used the naked eye to judge where to place the bushings after I installed the end links and attached to cross member.......you think that is good enough???? It looks evenly spaced with relation to the end links positioned vertically......or is this something crucial to handling????

One day I will learn that less is more....I should have just put em on the car blk instead of sanding and spraying red....lol :yesnod:

They'll work themselves out, I think. As long as they're not waaaaaay off, you should be OK.

You should be fine.
As long as it is somewhat symetrical it should settle in with out a problem. :cheers:

:iagree: Ditto. They float a bit side-to-side anyways.

Have a good one,
Mike
