15x10 rear drag wheels--question

This site may earn a commission from merchant affiliate links, including eBay, Amazon, and others.

Ok, I know to run a 15x10 rear wheel on the S197 platform, the sway bar must be relocated. However, I thought that I read that with the Steeda relocation kit, the thicker rear bar on the Boss required grinding as well.
Anyone have feedback on the Steeda kit? or recommend a different kit?

I have no intention of grinding on my Boss. :- )

Thanks, Brian

The bar does not need grinding but when installing the Steeda Relo Kit you must cut off the bottom of the factor bracket.

Here's my thread on Mustang Source.
You can use Steeda 's Sway bar to clear if you didn't want to grind a flat spot on swaybar

Save the dawn for your dishes!!!
I have the steeda relocation brackets to install on my boss as I just picked up a set of 15x10's. Didnt know about having to grind on the sway bar. guess I will be grinding the sway bar. I do have some time till the track open ups might get a diferent rear sway bar and not have to cut the bracket or grind on the stock part. Like the whiteline rear sway bar.

honestly it's only about 1/8 flat ground off. It definitely doesn't hurt the integrity of the Sway bar
