Have any of you come across this?? I'm guessing it's the motor mounts that I have. I don't know what brand they are - I'm guessing cheapys - they came with the motor. I'm looking at replacing them soon because I want the Innovative mounts. Any other ideas would be great. I have currently raised my car up about 1/2 an inch so that I'm not hitting it as much.
Thanks.
Thanks.

larry said something about using curved radius rods to clear his GSR or ITR motor... not sure which one it was.. either way, I'm sure you could either get a smaller pulley, or space up the mounts a lil higher... or get mounts that allow you to clear the traction bars.
Best I got for ya.

I say heat the bar, and curve it, then adjust and get an alignment.

Hmm... heat up your springs while you're under there :P j/k
Frodo, you realize that track bars are flexible, and part of the suspension, right?... heating them up isn't the best choice, since it weakens the spring-ability of the part.
this is why those of us with some sense don't lower our cars with torches...
