Suspension .: Rear Sway Bar Squeaks :.
.: Rear Sway Bar Squeaks :.
Hi All,
I have the H-Sport 19mm Rear Sway bar on my mini for about 2 weeks now. Just today when I went over a fairly small/medium speed bump in work's parking lot. I heard a squeaky sound coming from the back as I roll over the bump. I then notice it again in the next bump… I am just curious if anyone has had any problem with the sway bar since it’s now bigger than the stock and to cost any body damage. I assume that the sound is perhaps from the sway bar touching the body as the springs are compresses. Since it was just installed, I am not entirely sure it can be the bushings since it "should" be lubed. I am going to get it check this weekend and get a few other minor mods on. Hopefully it’s something minor and it won’t cost any problems in the long run. Any input?

That’s the plan. I just don’t want any major damage in the long run. I have found a thread that someone had post pics of the sway bar hitting the body so much it costs some ugly looking results... Would not want that to happen…
