19638, TSI AWD sway bars fitment problem
Posted by neovb, Aug-30-03 08:38 AM
I used the search feature, just didnt really find anything relevant :)

Anyways, I have a 97 GS, I am swapping out the sways for TSI AWD sways. I got the front in with no problem, but the rear just doesnt seem to go in. No matter what I do, its always hitting the exhaust. Does anyone have a step-by-step of installing a rear sway bar or any pictures of one already mounted up? Has anyone had the same problem? Any help is really appreciated, thanks.

I'm not 100% sure since I've never tried it, but it may not fit at all.

The AWD cars have a diffirent rear suspension than the FWD cars.

I also have never done it, but I hear that the rear sway bar is interchangable between drivelines.

What exhaust do you have on your car? I have a 3" Thermal and the TSi AWD rear sway bar fit on my car just fine. So I would say either your exhaust takes a different route by the back suspension, or you might be putting the sway bar on backwards or upside down.
