Sway Bar Adjustment

[Bob_Whit]

Hi Guys
I have lowered my car about an inch, it's a daily driver.

I'm thinking of getting the Drake adjustable end links. How should the sway bars be on the ground with the car weight? Right now I would think they have preload just from the lowering, should they be parallel to the ground to work correctly, as intended?

Thanks

Not necessarily parallel. To start, set both links to approx stock length, install one side, then the other...make small adjustments to length of the second one so the bolt end of the link lines up perfectly with the bar's hole. Obviously this is with the car loaded on all fours, basically you want the end links to be at the exact length so it there's no tension/compression on them.
