So I have a S1 VN Lexcen sedan, and I have lowered it and put what I was told was an FE2 sway bar in it. I used the supplied bushings for the body mounts, but am having an issue with the shortened link pin kit that it came with...
The bottom mounting sheared off and the sway bar is now free to wreak havoc with the brake line... luckily I heard it let go and stopped driving. Wheels are full lock to the right so I could stick my head and camera in the wheel arch to figure out where the clunk was coming from. It let go on a full lock right turn.
The strut is a standard item, it's got king spring super lows and short stroke shock absorbers. The link pins I believe are genuine Holden with Nolathane bushings.
Is there an FE2 strut case that has the link pin mounting moved? Was I using the wrong link pin kit? Should I have used the original length ones? Not sure what the problem is, but obviously something is very very wrong with my setup for this to happen.
Any help would be appreciated, including being slapped across the head and being told I'm a retard who put the wrong parts in his car. Cheers guys.
