  • SPM rear sway bar fitment

    Hi all, just had my SPM rear sway bar installed earlier today and as the pictures below (hopefully) show, I'm forced to have the bar set to the stiffest setting in order to avoid contact with the control arms.

    Passenger side (1st picture) has significantly less clearance compared to driver side. Has anyone come across this before?

    What car do you have?

    I fitted a SPM rear swaybar to my Mk6 GTI a few days ago and it fits fine. Currently set in the softer setting.

            wOULDN'T THE SOFTEST SETTING MOVE THE ARM BACKWARDS /caps and away from the lower control arm?

              About 1cm clearance from the control arms. Looks a bit closer on the passenger side.
