I made this thread like a year and a half ago, unfortunately a typo put "swat" instead of "sway" in the title so it was hard to find in searches. I was just looking for the old thread so I could use the picture for something and the pic is now a red X due to a change in domain names for server. So I figured what the hell, might as well make a new/updated thread.
I'm not going to post the pic again because its huge, click the link and you can zoom in.
Click me for huge picture
Fell free to add anything relevant.
random tidbits from the old thread....

Trimming of the swaybar end for clearance purposes. Thank you Ryan for this information.

Thank you Dave and JBO!
You don't need to cut the end of the bar off if you use the right endlink spacers... Eibach packed the front ones with the rear bar and vice-versa.
i still had to cut the ends of the bar on mine with the right spacers , guess alot depends on the ride height the car is at
good job on the pics james
In my first post it says to put the links labeled for the rear on the front. Even with the proper ones in the front I still had to cut the bar aswell.
addco is different then fully I take it? I didn't have to cut mine down at all.
Your first post didn't specify which size was to be used for the front
I guess people's cars will dictate whether trimming is necessary or not... I ran mine on Koni Reds and Eibach Sportlines (for a while, now on Pro-Kit) without any clearance issues. I did have to cut the end off of one bolt... but not both.
However... cutting the bolts and trimming the end of the bar off in advance saves having to do it later... should you find out your car needed it after all.
