Eibach Rear Sway

[93 SVT]

Ive got hotchkis LCA and was wondering if the EIBACH rear sway mounts to the inside or outside of the LCA's? With the amount of force I would imagine it mounts on the inside but its going to take alot of work to bend it to get it in there

the pictures ive seen show outside but doesnt that place all the load on the fasteners?

My guess would be inside, same as stock

me too but only way it fits is outside. For it to fit inside the bar would have to be bent at least 2 inches inward. I feel like this places so much stress on the bolts as opposed to the bar

We are talking about mounting it with aftermarket box style control arms with a tab that drops down below the actual box for the sway bar? Or are you mounting it on stock control arms?

Yes aftermarket LCA with tabs. The only way it seems to fit correctly is by mounting it to the outside of the LCA tabs

Then I would mount it outside of the tabs. Any clamping stress on the sway bar is going to weaken it. Keep in mind that the sway bar is probably designed to work with stock control arms. It is very hard to ensure that an aftermarket component will work with other aftermarket components.
