I'll have to see. The outside of the lower control arm won't move but with the weight of a complete front end and powertrain the lower control arm might be a bit lower at the lower control arm shaft.

Hotchkis said they preferred I space the front mounts down first but acknowledged it won't make much room up where I need it at the control arms. With the sway bar rotated so that it was almost touching the ground there was a negligible increase in clearance. I removed one of the rubber bushings between the sway bar and control arm and it increased the clearance. I can turn the wheels to full lock now but only have enough clearance to fit the thickness of a nickel. I wont be at speed at full lock so it *should* *maybe* be ok. I'll table this for now until i have full weight up front.

So in summary.... it *might* work.
