Could you use this with the sway bar? I have easy access to these hooks for $5 and would like to do it. It looks like one said yes and OP said no.

personally, i don't see this going very well.
but that's just my opinion, and it ain't worth anything.

some things just shouldn't be jerry-rigged.

Default Instead of washers

Thanks for posting about the tow hooks from a chevy truck. I also noticed the same hooks on the rounded body style chevy S10 Blazers and they came with a 1/2 inch spacer specifically designed to raise the hook. You may want to swap those in place of your washers.

Thanks for the tip,

Mike
