How close does your factory style rear sway bar fit to your center housing???? Just got an aftermarket (adco) bar and it seems to hang down farther that I would like.

My factory bar does not touch the differential but I bet I can't fit my fingers between it.

My Addco rear bar is about 2 inches from the pumpkin. Its 27 years old. Addco usually makes quality stuff( at least they did when they were in Lake park Fl).

Non-factory here, but my Hotchkis fits exactly as Mike describes above. Are your boxed control arms factory or aftermarket?

70 Chevelle with original suspension. I can't put my finger between the diff and the bar either.
