[T3] lowered rear suspension and Z-bar

[SAW DUST]

cut the verticle bar above the rubber bump the same distance that you lowered the rear of the car and weld it back in place. OR- remove the Z-Bar system and purchase an aftermarket sway away system.Cut and weld would seemingly be more affordable.

> I have a '68 squareback, the rear has been lowered one vernier click.  I love the stance, and the handling is acceptable.   But the rubber cushions on the Z-bar are sitting right up against the stops.   What do you guys recommend -  leave it alone?   Take the links out?  Adjust the Z-bar to give some clearance when the car is sitting still?
