Help with clearance on FRPP Rear Sway Bar

The FRPP offers very minimal clearance from the Passenger side to the Driver Side. Can this be adjusted? I couldn't seem to pry it one way or the other.


Passenger:

That's a GT500? What size wheel/tire you running in back? Aftermarket bar I assume, what type? Stock mounts or aftermarket? Lowered or not? Adjustable panhard bar?

The bar centering itself is mostly dictated by the lower mounting points, and there is some free play there that might allow moving it one way or the other. Is it possible your bar is bent (meaning not properly, or too much) on one side or the other?

You install it upside down?

GT500 with FRPP handling kit. 335/30/20 rears.

I was able to pull the bar to one side for better clearance with a few tugs and a planted foot.

Now that's some meat!

Could see why you'd have that issue.
