Your gonna have to trim the spring cup and upper bump stop mount.
and thats it? What about fender wells? Anything about them? Running a 20" rim with damn small tire. Don't remember size.
You can lay frame in the front w/ the factory fenderwells in tack if your running a 255/35r20 tire.
You'll also have to mod the sway bar mounts and cut down or replace the factory lower bump stop w/ a smaller one.

leave the sway bar onOriginally Posted by northplayer13
Buy me
how should i make new brackets???
I removed my sway bar but I'm also running aftermarket lower control arms and i couldnt get the swaybar to not rub on the bags... Hell the sway bar mount that was welded to my control arm even rubbed the bag after I took the sway bar out. Most people that I have seen just shorten the factory sleeve down and use a shorter bolt in its place.
still dont understand
Ditch them, the mount they go to has to be trimmed off.Originally Posted by northplayer13
Keep the sway bar on but run shorter end links.
Is there a shorter end links you can buy or just cut the factory ones?
I've done both. Energy Suspension makes them in lots of lengths. With the ART Strong Arms kit you cut the stock sleeve and they provide you with a new allen headed bolt that's 2" shorter(pretty sure that's the length).Originally Posted by low94
whatever you do, run a sway bar. Dont leave it off. It makes a big difference.
loose the bump stops, and take the sway bar and flip it over the so the left is now the right and visa versa and use the stock end links, thats it for those two items....
2000 ECSB, 5.3, magna flow cat back, some beat in the back and a killer front stage
SO just switch the left and the right and that will work?? Anyone got pics of different ways to do it?
does anybody have any pics of their front setups?
Here's a pic of KP cups with DJM LCA's.Originally Posted by matrixbackman01
