Here's how I modified the front support tubes for sway bar clearance to prevent interference when the suspension bottoms out.

I also welded on alignment tabs for the front bumpers as shown in the picture.

And here's a link to a different style sway bar that can probably be mounted to avoid interference. www.aircooled.net/new-bin/viewproductdetail.php?keyword2=SSS0002&cartid=

Hi JustJoe,

Here's a picture from Carlisle '04 that shows the front bumpers pretty well.

Here's a picture showing the straight across alignment of the front bumpers. I used a length of 1" square tubing attached with hose clamps to hold the bumpers in alignment while I welded on the alignment tabs.

Here's a close up of the passenger side bumper.

Gary Hammond,
