I have a 21mm rear sway bar that clunks incurably. I also noticed that the bracket that holds the bushing has bent, as did the 'receiver' part of the subframe (where the bracket's front hook part hooks into the subframe).
I need a REAL fix to this problem. I know a number of you guys (Buckshot, Brad Noon) with aftermarket bars have talked about reinforcements for the brackets. Aussie suggested a weld in plate for example. This sounds like a great permanent solution, particularly if used with new bushings that accept bolts front and back (instead of back only) and Zirc fitting.
Which leads me to my question....
What size plate did you weld in? How thick? I figure 1/8" would prolly work. Did you drill and tap this plate for the bracket bolts, or just drill for clearance and use nuts for the bracket bolts?
Pictures would be great.
