swaybar solution for 9" with back brace?

i just installed a moser 9" with a welded backbrace on it, and i'm trying to figure out what to do for a sway bar. I was gonna just weld the mounts to the bottom of the axle housing, but i'm realising now that the stock style sawybar simply does not fit. It hits the pumpkin, and the shock mount brackets. I looked through Spohns site, and moser's site, but didn't see anything. Anybody have any ideas?

You need this:

But since you have a back brace, you will not be able to use the u-bolts, you'll have to weld the mounts to the axle tubes. I can supply them bare to make the welding easier.

so that kit will allow me to use the stock swaybar correct? It seems to make sense, the only thing thats worrying me about it, is the stock bar was hitting the shock mounts, not just the torque arm mounts, then again moving it down would probably take care of that problem as well.

What do i need to do to have them sent to me uncoated, and what size endlinks am i gonna need?

Yep, the stock sway bar, moves everything down and out of the way. You just need poly end links, we supply the longer bolt and sleeve needed for the end links, you just swap them on to your end links.

Just put a note in the comments box of the order form that says "need bare spacers - welding to rear". I'll know what you need.

Look at the bottom of that product page, I put up pics that show everything installed.
