Matt, I was wrong yesterday, they are actually 36-way adjustable so they are set at 24 right now.

Looks good! Id say drop it a little bit lower, especially in the front.
I have no intention to run 18s in the foreseeable future, and dropping it much lower will begin to mess with the suspension geometry. Function is greater than form. :)

Both of us fail at reading.

Installing the swaybar seemed like it was going good until it came to remounting it. This unit reuses the stock brackets and replaces the bushings with harder ones. The way the stock brackets work is just fine, but the aftermarket bushings just mess that all up. If you do get this swaybar I suggest looking into a different mounting bracket as well.

So what did you end up doing? using the stock bushings?.Looks great

We got it to work after a bunch of swearing and tweaking things, but definitely not the way I wish it would have went.

Now that I think more about it the bushing supplied with the swaybar is simply a little too big. I think if we shaved a little off to make it fit better it would have went together smoothly.

Ya you'd almost need to take off 1/8" at a time from that bushing, but still the other side we got in just fine, so who knows. These whiteline bars seem to perform well once installed, but damn they have been a b*tch every time.

Someone order a progress bar for their evo and lets install it, I wanna see if mine was just dumb luck or if they actually go in easier.

MattD, I TOLD you to put the sway on full stiff right away :D

Zac's and my Whiteline bushings were a perfect fit.
