Hey,
I have the Competition Engineering "slide-a-link" traction bars, item #: C2096
I am having a problem installing them, am posting a picture of the problem(because of HD leaf spring on the 80 z28?).
I think the best way to make them fit is cut and weld the bracket hole 7/16 higher(i did measure i need the hole about 0.410" higher).
I did think about cutting the leaf spring or replacing them, but id like to leave those alone as much as possible.
Let me know what is best, what YOU would be doing please

Needless to say i was dissapointed about that, removing the spring hanger and removing/pressing(did the work under the car without a press) the bushing to find out it dont fit was a pita(rusted/busted/seized bolts) I still have to fix my torque box(rear subframe end) but the area to repair is small. I will post some picture of the progress and whats left to be done on this car for this year.
