Performance Differential Cover hits rear swaybar HELP

PapaSmurf · December 9th, 2008, 07:04 PM

I had all of my rearend components installed last week and at the same time I installed a Moser Engineering Differential Cover. The quality and appearance of it is great but the only problem is that it rubs and hits the rear swaybar! Its not making any noise from this but i noticed it when I put the car on a lift yesterday that it has rubbiing the cover.

My car is lowered so im wondering if that has something to do with it, or is it simply the cover itself? Has anyone else had this issue? Am i going to have to possibly buy a different differential cover? I really like the moser one. Any and all help is appricieated thanks.

Might want to go with a more mustang specific cover. The ones I saw on their site don't mention anything about ford or mustang. I used a Trickflow and it clears no problem.

Iv'e got the TA performance one on mine, no problems at all with it. Iv'e also got some adjustable lower control arms that came with (2) positions for the sway bar to bolt up. I have mine in the stock location, but the extra position is further back. If you were planning on swapping them out, you could save your current diff. cover. I believe they are C.H.E. arms. They sell them @ s197 performance.
