It's in, WOW what a differnece. 444-544

Thanks for all the input, Being forwarned I had the angle grinder ready and it was needed. The front bumper brackets got ~1/4" taken off of them and the tierod end bolt got ground down flush with the nut. This gave me .025" of clearance between the nut and the bracket.

One other thing was the end links IPD sent were way too long. With them installed the bar tilted up to where I was afraid it was going to hit the brake lines (stanless from IPD thanks to the PO) I used the old spacer and new bolt and all is good.

Handling is good, I didn't thrash it, it's a 210 running 165R/15s after all. There is some understeer but it didn't feel any worse than a stock 240 and leaned a whole lot less. I'll work on the rear bar once the new rear springs are in if the added spring rate I'm going with still requires it.

My God what a difference.
Thanks Again All.
