Posted August 6, 200816 yr comment_255489 The restoration show reports that the driveshaft yoke is contacting the swaybar and making nasty noises. Could the problem be related to the drive shaft alignment caused by a high ride height (Euro springs plus Bilsteins)? What is the purpose of the rear mounting damper plate? Is it needed?

August 6, 200816 yr comment_255512 Hi Fixitman,I had the same problem. The brackets who hold the sway bar bushings, were bended up.This was caused by the car jack.Good luck Rainer from Germany Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/28933-driveshaft-yoke-swaybar-contact/#findComment-255512 Share on other sites More sharing options...
