You dont need a sway bar in drag racing just get rid of it. Thats for stability around turns **** like that....perfectly fine to delete it

I used stock. Never seen any reason to change the LCA's. Only benefit would be to lessen unsprung weight.

the reason is the blox isnt the same type of bottom shock that fit the stock lca so i had to go to the blox one

I had Blox LCAs. Blew the bushings out almost instantly. Put ES bushings in the stockers, and put them back in...

I'd stay the hell away from blox products if they don't even engineer a hole for a sway bar! How the hell do they market this product? lol

If the car is an SI, you might want to sell it in the EF forum.. the SI had a larger diameter bar that people that turn when they race like, and it doesn't violate the rules like some other bar choices do. All I am saying is that you are probably looking at a $50 bill.

no sway bar needed for drag racing so its not a big deal.

and no hole for the sway bar isnt the issue there is a hole there its just that the sway bar doesnt match up to work properly ill post pix later to help solve the confusion lol
