Murrayc 1 Report post Posted May 20, 2008 I have installed uprated sway bars and the factory mounts on the control arm can't take the extra load and are bending. Has anyone reinforced their's. How was it done. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How was it done. Cheers. Your not confusing control arms with trailing arms are you? ie front or rear axle? I ask becuase its quite common for the rear tabs on the arms to bend, and I haven't seen it happen on the front. If it is the rear the usual fix is to weld some extra tabs to reinforce the factory mounts. there are kits but it easy enough to make your own. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murrayc 1 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Chaps, Sorry for the confusion. It's the rear trailing arm tabs. I have sorted out with welding some reinforment to the tabs. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
