Hey guys need some help.

Went out this morning and noticed the passenger side of my sc is sitting about an inch higher than the driver side. Looked under the car for anything unusual but looks like my rear sway bar has shifted to the right. My first thought is to jack the car up and move it back but any reason it wouldn't shift back bothers me. Tips, suggestions? Stock suspension, for the books. Thanks guys!

 

Bump for justice

 

Sway bars without collars will normally shift back and forth. Not a big deal.

 

You can make a cheap/easy DIY swaybar collar. Take a medium sized vacuum hose, cut it length wise, use a hose clamp to secure the swaybar and the rubber hose will help protect the stock bushings.

Should look something like this.



Or you can go baller and get some aluminum sway collars.



Edit: It seems a bit odd that one side of the car would sit higher. Did you check for any bent endlinks, or any reason the car would sit higher on one side? Also, the swaybar will be hard to move with the car in the air, the natural resting position of the sways are when the car is on the ground with factory ride height. If you cant access the swaybar without the car raised, you may want to drive onto some ramps for clearance, this will keep the sway in its relaxed position and should give you enough room to work on it.


Thanks,
Rick

 

Thanks guys for the help so far.. I've looked again at the end links, no bends but because of the shift the pass link is shoved up against the shock cylinder, haven't driven it since I noticed the issue. But yeah it's weird that it would raise the passenger height like that. Shocks are good I know, no broken springs, odd. Ill be straightening the sway bar when I get home and it should correct the end link. No marks on the link or shock from contact

 

Update: moved the sway bar over and the car is sitting level as a plank. Weird ****.
