rear sway bar issue.. =\
So I just installed the progress rear sway bar. I have SPC rear control arms and it makes contact with the control arms.. It also contacts my muffler. Do you guys have any advice as to what I should do? Will adjustable end-links solve my problem?

Sounds like it was installed incorrectly.

Sounds like you may have the bar mounted upside-down. It will bolt on both ways. This is a common problem, but easy to fix. I hope this helps.

I can't believe I did that!! I literally had it flipped in 15 minutes after I jacked it back up.
