Sway bar install

[Dgjason]

Just finished BajaRon's sway bar install. Everything seemed to go fine. Took out for first ride and noticed spyder would do quick small jerk in which ever direction I was turning.

Question: could this be caused if I tightenec the "bushing blocks" to much ? I can't figure anything else that was replaced. This did not happen with stock bar and no other adjustments have been made.

Bushing blocks are meant to be tight. Thinking the "centering" is off or the bar is sliding back and forth.

Have not run into this before. Can you give a more detailed description of the 'Jerk'? Is it quicker turning or is is a sudden change in direction?

It is not possible for the 2013 bar to move left to right. It is centered automatically during the install process.

I would suggest disconnecting both links at the bar and see how much friction you have. You should be able to move the bar up and down at the link connection point with some resistance, but not a great deal of resistance.

Please let me know what you find.
