    Mx3 LCA's with ZX2 swaybar & protege endlinks!!!

    So i've managed to pull off what we didn't think was quite possible previous to now.

    You can run a ZX2/protege bar with MX3 wider LCA's without too much extra fabrication.

    things needed:
    2 longer bolts
    existing bushings & hardplates
    a BFH & a metal piece ( i used a bad 1/2" extension )

    Pics of the sytem.

    NOTE the area in red, I had to bash this area to clear the bushing hardplates.

            Hmmmmm. I always assumed when they are THAT deformed they are bad and thus i don't tend to reuse them if i end up taking them off for one reason or another.

              the rear isthe easy part, 1 or 2 heim joints depending on your swaybar.

              OEM bar for the pro uses 1 heim joint & you tighten a bolt with bushings into it in between the bushings is the swaybar eye hole.

              basically the same as what i first tried for the front.

                  why not just cut the tab off for the mx-3 endlink?
