Anyone else installed a musclebar on a 69 Camaro? The arms seem to hit the factory bump stop pads that are welded onto the subframe.
I didn't realize I would have to cut up my subframe in order to install the musclebar. The frame is already powder coated.
Any suggestions? Are these bump stops easy to remove? I guess I'm willing to take them off but wanted to check and see if anyone else had this same problem. Also wanted to let people know who are considering purchasing one of these that this little surgery will have to be performed. For a sway bar that cost $500 you think they could at least let you know this needs to be done before you buy it.
Having said that, I'm happy with the A-arms, shocks, and tru-turn stuff I got from ridetech. The only other problem i had were the shock spacers didn't fit in the lower A-arm. I guess the powdercoating was too thick or the spacer neck was machined correctly. simple fix.
