Can anybody tell me if an original LC XU1 sway bar will still fit on a LC torana with a 308 and a custom sump
Thanks

Ok are you 100% sure Al

[N/A-PWR]

We need some under carriage pictures,

 

to see where the sumps come too Gene.

[Ice]

Im sure someone has installed before surely

cant definitely answer your question Geno, but in that old "How to build a XU2"" booklet..its shows the 308  LC ( 4 door) has an aftermarket bar on it.

The type that clampsonto the control arm with the bushes etc .

Doesn't mean a factory one doesn't fit.

And I guess a 4 door would have been unlikely to have the 82911 bar anyway....

Hi Gene,
 
I see the XU1 sway-bars are straight,
 
with scalloped ends.
 
 
Where as the 33 year old aftermarket one I have,
 
has an off-set at the passenger side,
 
which dips down another 1/2" from halfway across.
 
 
 
You could modify the Bar and clamps to suit in any case.


mine doesn't have the scallops at the ends, just round bar.

 
Edit:-
 
This XU1 sway-bar looks like she will clear an extra 50mm lower than mine hey

Question:-

I wonder what the difference is between all the XU1 Sway-bars? ( LC/LJ )
